This seems to be a decent Da Hong Pao tea.
Smooth, with minimal astringency, yet lively on the palette.
It’s also delicate, light, and somewhat refreshing, although for my preferences, it could taste a little darker.
I bet this would make a great iced tea as well.
Flavor notes: Charred wood, wildflowers, raisins, honey, caramel
