| * Western Tasting (23 III 2018): Wet leaves very fragrant, old stone cellar walls, moss; old leather chairs big time! Same for the empty cup, almost cloying. Some honey, too. Beautiful colour! Golden. Nose is odd, vegetable broth? Yeah, Rosenkohl, light honey again. Quite light and sweet in taste. Very smooth, decent body, light honey and pine resin. Resin note (not cloying though) becomes stronger as it chills. Also a very faint minerality, and some canned peaches fluid. | * Western Tasting (23 III 2018): Wet leaves very fragrant, old stone cellar walls, moss; old leather chairs big time!

| * Western Tasting (4 IV 2018): Wet leaves smell really spicy, empty cup quite fascinating. Old cognac, cellar, tobacco leaves. Nose has a grape-like quality; brew surprisingly thin and light. Peach-fruit in the back. Body slim, chalky. Some paper. Body becomes thicker as it cools. | * Western Tasting (4 IV 2018): Wet leaves smell really spicy, empty cup quite fascinating.

| * Western Tasting (4 IV 2018): Very different scent on the leaves. Muskat, I think, Darjeeling-like. Almost perfumed, very recogniseable. Sweet nose, baking spices; cardamom AF! Quite astringent to drink, grape seed tannins. Woodsy, leafy; quite big. | * Western Tasting (4 IV 2018): Very different scent on the leaves. Muskat, I think, Darjeeling-like.

| * milan white (15 V 19) from white2tea: sundried milan dancong leaves from Guangdong. Smells like a white tea, but then is super fruity, like the honey flavour in other white teas replaced by peaches.
