1. View

The dry leaves are dark green, long and thin.  The brew has a clear yellow hue with an excellent transparency and shine. The open leaves show a light oxidation with little red color on the edge.

2. Scents

The dry scents are intoxicating and flowery (with lavender scents). The brew has high notes of flowers and perfume. Very refined.

3. Taste

The taste is very sweet and has a very long good aftertaste. The freshness is lingering and triggers a great salivation in the mouth.

Conclusion: This Baozhong uses the classic Qingxin Oolong cultivar (which is also used in the high mountains) and delivers both great scents and powerful aftertaste. May the 4th be with all Star Wars fans!
