Full-bodied and smooth with plum-like fruitiness and floral notes. Sweet, slightly tart finish adds complexity. Good for afternoon or evening sessions.
The brick format shows dark brown compressed leaves with visible golden-yellow fungal flowers scattered throughout. The eurotium cristatum fungi appear as small yellow-orange spots across the surface and interior. Breaking the brick releases floral aromas mixed with aged scents and fungal earthiness.
Steeping produces a reddish-amber liquor with good clarity. The first infusion opens with smooth, full body and immediate floral notes. Plum-like fruitiness develops in the mid-palate alongside the fungal character from the golden flowers. The texture feels rich and coating. Later steeps maintain the sweet plum quality while increasing earthy depth. The fungal notes remain present throughout, adding distinctive fermented complexity. The brew stays smooth across multiple infusions without bitterness.
From Anhua County in Hunan Province, processed with beneficial golden flower fungi development. Suits dark enthusiasts interested in fungal fermentation character and those exploring fu zhuan brick styles.
