Da Xue Shan Ye Sheng Ya Bao

Fresh garden herbs!

Lifting a cup of this tea up to your nose is like grabbing a clump of herbs right out of the garden, minus the soil. Sage and rosemary are the dominant notes in the aroma, with fennel underneath. The taste is mellow, buttery, and sweet, and has a lingering lemony aftertaste that layers up on your tongue as you drink more. The texture is silky and leaves just enough astringency to make your mouth water, but not pucker too much.

Ya bao may sometimes be added to Puerh, but this tea deserves to be drunk on its own, without a doubt. Will most certainly be reordering!
