Taste
- Dry Leaf Aroma
- Pronounced chestnut (栗香, lìxiāng) — the main aromatic signature of the tea. In nuances — roasted nuts, light sweetness of baked chestnut, undertone of fresh greenery.
- Liquor Aroma
- Clean, high, with chestnut dominance. As it cools, soft floral and grassy notes unfold. Aroma is persistent and prolonged.
- Liquor Color
- Clear, from tender green to yellow-green. With correct temperature — clean and bright, with light opalescent glow.
- Spent Leaves
- Leaves unfold evenly, color — tender green, uniform. Leaf is elastic, thick, "fleshy" — visual evidence of northern origin.
