Wan Gong 2012 Spring

Wan Gong village was abandoned a century ago after reputed cattle thieving led to a massacre of the local community, and now the trees grow in relative isolation, over 3 hours walk from Ding Jia Zhai and Gua Feng Zhai. Tea poaching used to be common here, until the trees were recently distributed between the neighboring villages. This tea has a lovely sweet aroma of meadow flowers, honey and hay. Good to drink whilst young, the pale yellow liquor tastes sweet, with a thin buttery mouthfeel, no astringency, and a gentle, calming chaqi.
