2000 Macau Hua Lian Qing Zhuan Review (Sampletea.com)

 
This is a pleasant semi-aged puerh starting to get some really aged character. It is just a basic aged sheng with balanced properties and nothing fancy, just the way I like it.

The fragrance of the tea has notes of forest foor, toasted nuts, and dried fruits. At times perfumy scents or the comforting aroma of warm wood can be detected.


This Macau brick still has a lot of power in it. The taste has an energetic up-beat vitality that is immediately apparent as soon as one takes a sip. It is followed by a dark, heavy and musty textured mouthfeel, a slight velvety bitterness, and a strong astrigency. It is not often I have noticed bitterness and astrigency to be as clearly separated as here.

All in all, really tasty, and a good drink to have now if you want something powerful and refreshing.
