This Sheng Pu'er begins with a tranquil, sweet character, evoking the fresh aroma of a forest floor after a soft rain. Layers of fruit emerge, from the nuanced taste of starfruit to bright apple and citrus, all underpinned by a consistent grape and nectar sweetness. Its viscous, almost oily texture provides a sustained, invigorating finish, much like a restorative walk through ancient woods.
