2017 Dayi "Phoenix Queen" 7542 (Ding You Special Supply)
This is the 1701 batch of the "Ding You" special supply "Phoenix Queen" edition of the classic 7542 recipe. As a benchmark for Dayi's raw (sheng) Puer teas, it is both delicious and affordable, making it highly recommended for drinking now or for collecting and aging.
Characteristics:
Appearance: The cake is round and well-formed with moderate compression. The dry leaves are tightly rolled, tender, and show a good amount of silvery-white buds.
Liquor: Bright yellow.
Aroma: The fragrance is pure, with noticeable floral and fruit notes.
Flavor: The taste is mellow and full-bodied with a slight bitterness and astringency, leading to a good huigan (returning sweetness) and lasting shengjin (saliva production). The overall mouthfeel is harmonious and well-balanced.
This batch has been stored in a high-aroma, dry-storage environment and is available by the cake, tong, or case.
