After trying it again, I'm redoing my original review of this tea.
This is a very nice Dragon Well. Excellent price for the quality and, so long as you don't let it oversteep, it makes several excellent cups.
This tea infuses quite slowly and tends to look pale. The taste is there, though. Waiting for some steam release to thicken the tea also helps. Leaving it too long can introduce a slight bitterness, which isn't too bad but which I prefer to avoid. I brewed this at 175 F and think that worked really well.
In short, this is a lovely tea.
