dry leaf
Minute, tightly curled silver-green tips with abundant white down; nose is reminiscent of fresh sugarcane and steamed edamame.
wet leaf
Leaves unfurl into whole, vibrant jade-colored buds and delicate first leaves; aroma deepens to warm chestnut and honey.
liquor
Clear, pale apricot liquor with a faint green shimmer, full-bodied despite its light color.
aroma
First sniff brings roasted chestnut and toasted grain, followed by a gentle floral lift — lily-of-the-valley and a hint of osmanthus.
taste
Soft, satiny entry with immediate chestnut sweetness, green bean umami, and a subtle orchid-like high note. No bitterness, even when pushed.
finish
Long, cooling finish with a persistent huigan of fresh sugarcane juice and light mineral grip on the tongue.
