Dry leaves have a creamy woody pungent forest odour.
First infusion has a woody watery creamy sweet note. There are savoury notes as well as sweet with a long creamy sweet cooling breath finish. Watery mouthfeel.
Second infusion has a woody creamy sweetness. The sweet tastes expands a touch then fades into the aftertaste. The cooled down liquid has a longer creamy sweet aftertaste.
Third infusion has a mild woody and creamy smooth sweetness with a creamy sweet fading aftertaste and sugary subtle sweet long cool aftertaste. The mouthfeel is watery with a fine sandy almost sticky feeling. Nice peaceful mild high.
Fourth infusion has a watery creamy woody sweet pure taste. Watery mouthfeel with a slight stickiness. Again a nice peaceful high.
Fifth infusion is a watery pure taste with a sweet almost melon taste coming out which expands a bit in the returning taste then contracts. The mouthfeel is watery and almost lubricating now. Nice peaceful relaxing feeling in the mind.
Sixth has a watery almost cereal grains with some mild melon sweet tastes in a watery clear broth. Nice chill relaxing vibe. Slight abdominal relaxing body feeling.
Seventh infusion is mainly watery with subtle woody and cereal notes subtle cool breath. Marked high feeling.
8th is put into a long mug infusion…
Overall this Man Xiu has a very smooth clean ethereal Gushu feeling about it. It has an interesting abdominal relaxation bodyfeeling which is a bit unique for me. The high you get from the Qi is really nice. The 2022 BiYun Hao Man Xiu from yesterday (pictured Left) has stronger mouthfeel and longer taste- it’s a more upfront puerh. This 2023 ChenYuan Hao Man Xiu is more ethereal with deeper peaceful stoner Qi.
Peace
