Taste
- Dry Leaf Appearance
- Twisted-curved form (卷曲形); dense, finely twisted leaves of dark green color with oily luster (墨绿油润); tender green shoots show through in places; abundant white down covers the s...
- Dry Leaf Aroma
- High, clean and noble (清香高雅), with young corn tones from abundant down (毫香, háo xiāng); a "wild" mountain note is felt — trace of high-altitude ecological terroir...
