Additional details

Description

The compressed cake shows a mix of silver-white buds and darker green-brown leaves from over a decade of aging. Breaking the cake reveals both colors along with visible white down on larger buds. The dry aroma combines sweet jujube with herbal and woody notes, indicating maturation. The leaf size varies, with full leaves and smaller bud portions throughout.

Steeping produces a golden-amber liquor with depth. The first cup tastes mellow and sweet with the jujube character leading. Subsequent infusions develop richer pekoe flavors and increased body. The texture becomes fuller in the mouth as brewing progresses. Later steeps maintain the sweet, herbal base while woody notes emerge. The finish is clean with lingering sweetness.

From Bailin Town in Fuding City, Fujian Province, this represents aged white processing. Works for drinkers interested in how whites develop complexity and depth over time.
