Forested natural tea gardens of Nuo Gu Wan
Balanced and complex
This Tian Xiang cake has an oily texture, some umami and a good returning fragrance. It displays a characteristic 'foresty' profile, quite unusual for Jingmai. This is likely because we used material from one of our heavily forested gardens. This year, we used the small trees of Nuo Gu Wan garden for this cake.
It is different from the 2025 edition, which used leaves from another garden. Here, we have a balanced tea, on the smooth side, with good Huigan and overall complexity. It makes for a great daily tea, in-between the miyun and gulan in terms of intensity.
