    Giving this 5 stars considering the price. This xuepian dancong has the attitude of a dancong, but a very different profile from that of a spring-harvest dancong. There is a hint of bamboo greenness and dried salted plum that quickly gives way to the nuttiness and savouriness of sweet toasted sesame crackers. This is supported by a pleasant astringency, minerality, and a lingering aftertaste.

    Delicious moments where the next cup is always waiting nearby. A lemony note develops after a few brews, with a creamy effect that lingers for a very long time.
    // Smell: Grilled tropical fruits, strongly floral, salty caramel over homemade ice cream, fruit punch cocktail, flowers outside after the rain.
    // Texture: Spicy & hot tip of the tongue, with a creamy texture that floats across the palate for the first brews.
    // Taste: Plain yogurt with flowers and ripe juicy peaches, grilled tropical fruits, wet rock, a hint of greenness, bar of roasted nuts with caramel underneath.
    // Body sensation: Peppery effect in the throat, thick saliva, coated cheeks, good mood, introspection, steadily building energy—invigorating and motivating.
