dry leaf
Pressed stone cake with visible silver tips; aroma of dried jujube, old books, and a whisper of camphor.
wet leaf
Unfurled dark olive-green leaves with a clean, earthy forest-floor scent and faint stone fruit sweetness.
liquor
Bright amber-gold, limpid and glossy; deepens to russet in later steeps.
aroma
Camphor and gentle woodsmoke lead, backed by dried apricot, cinnamon bark, and a cooling menthol finish.
taste
Sharp initial bitterness yields to a rich, mouth-coating broth of walnut, honeycomb, and aged bamboo; brisk but not aggressive, with a lively mineral spine.
finish
Long, cooling huigan that rolls back from the throat; soft dryness gives way to sweet saliva, leaving a clean, buzzing aftertaste.
