The first yellow tea I have ever tried and I am quite impressed. As soon as I got the dosage right (certainly higher than the recommended 11g/liter), I found a very interesting flavor profile (it was not that interesting with a lower dosage). It is somehow reminiscent of some Oolongs or First Flush Darjeelings, but more full-bodied than the latter. There are indeed intense baked and cocoa-like notes, mostly on the palate and in the aftertaste.
Even if slightly over-brewed, it doesn't get bitter. It resteeps reasonably well.
