Une de mes premières dégustation depuis mon arrivée: l'échantillon de ta YiWu 2003 acheté par le biais de mon collègue Sébastien... D'un coup, j'ai compris ce qu'est "un vrai puerh", pas les petites galettes de plantation... Gras, gouleyant, relief, arômes puissants et équilibrés, généreux. Wow! Bien... dès que mes finances me le permetteront, je me jure de m'en procurer une entière auprès de toi, histoire d'avoir au moins une galette "noble" parmi ma bande de galettes moindres! Longue vie à toi et à ton blog! Merci d'être là!Sachahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15908779160584168106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7326672.post-1164170308333754982006-11-22T12:38:00.000+08:002006-11-22T12:38:00.000+08:00My first order from Stephane included the 2002 Spr...My first order from Stephane included the 2002 Spring wild raw Yi Wu puerh in a 2003 wrapper. This is a lovely young tea, showing great promise for the future but offering much pleasure right now. The cake contains many long, whole leaves that separate easily without tools. The light amber liquor retains its color and sparkling clarity through at least 8 infusions. The nose shows some great resiny camphor notes and hints of fruit and spices. The resiny, spicy character is evident in the mouth, as well. There is no astingency and just a pleasant hint of bitterness to balance the inherent sweetness. The mouth feel is full and round, light and elegant at the same time, with a long, clean, spicy finish. I may have to pick up another cake for aging, because I'm not sure this one will see many more birthdays!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
