This sample was gifted to me by Tiago of Tea Encounter,
currently it has not been offered on the site…
Dry leaves are tightly pressed of fresh juicy fruits, a
creamy fresh odour, pencil shavings with grape and blueberry odours
Vacuous strawberry, thin slight rubbery mouthfeel that gets
very full quickly, a thin veil of tight sticky astringency, slow subtle
expanding strawberry aftertaste, gentle, subtle, soft tingles, big grape
tastes, slight sour if pushed, almost bread tasting edges, muscatel delight, heavy-headed Qi, muscles twitch, spacey.
Had a nice little session with this one today. Haven’t consumed too much of the purple leaf
Yibang in the past but my experience with this one suggests it’s a nice
example.
Peace

Dear Matt,
Unfortunately, I recently heard that this tea is sold out. I won't be able to offer it.
I was very disappointed to hear that.
I'm glad you liked it. I was very intrigued by it. :)
Best wishes,
Tiago
Tiago,
The spent leaves tell an interesting story of the complexity of this tea.
Thanks again for this experience and useful reference point.
Peace
