Additional details

Description

The small, tender buds are yellow-green with fuzzy appearance from fine hairs. Shape is curved and uniform, showing single-bud picking. Dry aroma combines sweet bean, fresh flowers, and buttery richness with underlying fresh grass.

The liquor is pale yellow-green with slight cloudiness from the fine hairs. Initial taste brings sweet bean flavor with immediate smoothness. Buttery character develops mid-palate alongside floral notes. Fresh grass and umami depth emerge in the finish. Body is medium-full, more substantial than typical greens. The texture is creamy and coating. Later infusions increase umami while maintaining sweetness.

From Mt. Tiangong in Juexi Town, Yibin City, Sichuan Province, this represents early spring picking. Traditional processing preserves tender buds while developing buttery richness. Good for drinkers who prefer greens with more body than typical grassy varieties.
