TASTING
Floral notes high and bright.
Sweet with a solid base, the aroma steeped into the liquor.
Jinguanyin is famed for high aroma; made as Lapsang Souchong, its florals stand out all the more and meld with the sweet foundation of Tongmu. Fragrance that never floats, flavor that never scatters — a tea in which cultivar and terroir complete each other.
Florals high and bright — Jinguanyin's signature strength; the sweet foundation of Tongmu catches and holds them; the scent in the empty cup carries both cultivar and terroir.
Sweet with a solid base, the aroma steeped into the liquor; fragrance that never floats, flavor that never scatters; cultivar and terroir completing each other — two virtues in one cup.
