This is the very Da Hong Pao that shatters all expectations from the first infusion.
The aroma starts surprisingly softly—sweet floral notes, delicate, pure, almost airy. Not sharp, not perfumy, but truly alive and warm. And here's the most interesting part: you already realize it's gu shu.
The first sip—sweetness, light honeyed quality, roundness. No roughness, no harsh roasting upfront. Everything is very smooth, very cohesive. The floral character lingers in the aftertaste, but then the tea starts to show its character.
And then it arrives—the classic Da Hong Pao. Minerality, rockiness, the signature "cliff" texture, dense body, long-lasting flavor. Warm woody tones emerge, nuttiness, light caramel from the roasting. The taste becomes serious, voluminous, mature.
And the best part—the finale returns to sweetness. Soft, long-lasting, almost creamy.
Not just "good," but the one that makes you see the entire genre differently.
