I recently retired this free sample from Tiago at Tea
Encounter as a comparison to the other older Lao Ban Zhang and it compares
favorably to them at a much better price… Nice wine floral sweetness with hints
of bitter coco and some faint astringency.
Nice stoning Qi as well. Warming
energy pushes me to sweat. Nice coolness
and long icing surgar sweetness with nice dry storage on it. Nice saliva producing pops. There is this beautiful mouth numbing quality
to this one in the early infusions that is quite dynamic with the stoning
relaxed Qi. This is comparable to the
2005 Greatful Tea Factory with this 2003 Yuanjiutang a bit less deep with less
stamina but probably strong Qi. This
session is a bit better than my first and my memory of it. It was a great price while Tea Encounter
still offered it.
Peace
