The aroma of the dry leaves is very floral, more so than any other Tieguanyin I've had, and the wet leaves are even more aromatic. I'm brewing this in my gaiwan, and after a quick rinse the first infusion is floral and vegetal, with a coolness in the finish that I usually find in Taiwanese oolongs. The second infusion is stronger and sweeter. Nothing about this tea tastes much like any other Tieguanyin I've tasted. Later infusions are still very floral and sweet, changing only slightly in character from the first couple infusions. It doesn't have a ton of complexity in my opinion, but its flavor and aroma are very pleasant. Anyone who's more into green oolongs would love this.
