More info

If you don't like too much sweetness , go harder on steepings in order to get balanced bitter-sweet tea liqour.

The overall taste reminds 2006 Da Xue Shan from Mengku Rongshi tea company, just this one is more vivid in fruity notes level. We have also tried 2007 and 2006 years of this tea , both were very smokey due to the old style of processing and all sweetness was just diminished / covered by heavy smoke layer.

Except of mentioned "ya bao" you can also find "cha hua" tea flower or "cha guo" tea fruit pressed into this cake.
