Tea Tasting Notes: 2022 Five Pile Chatou from White2Tea


Brewed as shou puer (212F, 7 grams tea in 100ml teapot)

Kind of a grab bag, it's super compressed, so it’ll probably take a ton of steepings. 
Deep reddish brown liquor.  Taste is very mildly earthy with a little sweetness.  It's
enjoyable. I've read others saying it has a quite strong taste, so will have to see how
later infusions go.

Update: 20230-08-24: I ended up liking this one quite a lot. I bought 250G of it during
the W2T "back to school" sale (free shipping for orders $39 or more).
