The aroma of this delightfully fuzzy tea reminds me of a mix between the muscatel of darjeeling and the delicate green of a Pai Mu Dan. Once the tea is brewed it takes on more of a floral aroma which blends well the the notes that are already present.
The first steep is mild and vegetal with notes of mown hay. The second steep packs more punch and brings out a delightful citrus tone.
