Description

This cultivar is a hybrid involving the plant known as 2022 Large Leaf and Jin Xuan; it may instead derive from Qingxin and 2022. Its profile is distinctive: very clean, direct vegetal notes reminiscent of Qingxin, balanced by the right degree of creaminess and aromatic intensity. It is particularly suitable for aging; after only a few years the body begins to change, with stronger umami and greater softness. For this reason, it is recommended to anyone who wants to perceive the changes created by aging within a relatively short time.

We recommend infusions at 85–90°C in a 120 ml gaiwan, using 4 grams of leaves for 40–60 seconds.
