Description
Made from Naka material that would normally grow up to become raw puer, this white tea exhibits prominent florals (dare we say notes of rose) reminiscent of the original ’21 pressing.
This tea offers much of the similar depth and body as the raw puer from this region, but in the firm yet gentle form of a white tea. A mineral sweetness common to Naka sheng is present, along with a slight fruitiness, coupled with a pleasant texture and body to hold things down.
A strong tea at a stronger value, this is an excellent choice for immediate drinking and long term storage.

It feels like this tea is a mix between white and sheng puer. Super easy drinker.
// Smell: Strawberry candy, floral, cream, zesty, strawberry stem infusion, intense humid hay at the farm
// Texture: Hot spot on the tip of the tongue, medium texture that doesn’t last long, warm palate and cheeks
// Taste: Creamy strawberry candy, humid hay (like raw puer), herbaceous, wet rock, potpourri yet also fresh flowers, rose-flavoured floral water for the face
// Body sensation: Dry at the back of the mouth and on the palate, deep breaths, silence, constantly moving on my chair, desire for things to go faster

A fragrant, floral white tea that brings some of the punch and minerality of a Naka sheng puer. Aroma and tasting notes of honey, floral and malty sweetness, with a bit of hay in the middle. Notes of sweet and sourness of dried plums, as well as sherbet tanginess, appear intermittently. I would give this 4.5 stars if I could.
