It has a roasted, chocolaty aroma when dry, and a sweet aroma when wet remini scent of orchids and spices. It's sweet, floral, aromatic and slightly sour, with a hint of bitterness and a fragrance reminiscent of plum blossoms. This wulong leaves a sweet aftertaste on the back of the tongue and throat and has a candycap-like fragrance. Grown in Red Star Village, deeper past the White Cloud Zen Temple towards the heart of the Wuyi Mountains. Lasts about 8 brews. Price is per 50 grams/1.76 ounces Show more
