The cake shows larger brown and olive-green leaves with stems visible in the compression. The material appears less refined than bud-heavy grades. Opening the wrapper releases warm jujube sweetness with underlying aged wood aromas and hints of chen xiang character.

Brewing creates a golden-amber liquor with clear depth of color. The first steep opens with smooth, sweet jujube notes that coat smoothly. The texture feels soft and rounded without rough edges. Mid-steeps introduce more earthy character that balances the initial sweetness. The brew develops warming, comforting qualities across multiple infusions. Later steeps maintain core sweetness while building more pronounced earthiness and subtle wood notes.

From Panxi County in Fuding City, Fujian Province, pressed in 2019 as shou mei grade. Good for white drinkers seeking aged character development and those who prefer earthy-sweet profiles with smooth texture.
