Brown sugar forest sweetness
Forest, sweet, pine needles, honey, barnyard, compost,
Satisfying sweetness, soft, honey, and caramel notes, no bitterness/astringency, more like a ‚forest lemonade‘, with some bright floral notes and mushroom notes, bit herbal/medicinal, generally mellow and easy to drink, due to the strong aroma it feels quite thick
soft, and with an oily feel
Soft and round
Not so pronounced, brown sugar aftertaste
slowly accumulating, gentle 2.5
This tea reminds of the Wangong area teas which I like. Strong forest sweetness, maltyness, which is not just plain sweet, but with a little bit of a herbal/medicinal backbone to balance the body and add depth.
There is some fruityness if pushed, generelly I feel this tea can be pushed quite a bit, but well, I generally drink my puerhs rather light.
Its not super strong tee, and qi/feel is not that complex, but the taste alone makes it a clear favourite, - great for a relaxed session.

This time in the Zini Pot, I noticed more of the tangy notes and also bit more fruity than last time. Nice fresh feel & soft, tingling qi, encouraging deep breaths. Bright.
