Truly a fantastic green tea, much better than any other liu an gua pian that I have tried. The dry leaves have a beautiful aroma and unfurl gently to release their emerald brew. Sweet, rich and releasing different flavors with each steeping.
I used a small glass gaiwan to brew so I could watch the leaves, and did a series of short steeps. Each was wonderful, revealing successively hints of aroma and flavor that reminded me of a walk down a garden path in the sunshine.
Looking forward to more tea sessions with this in the near future.
