Surprisingly this is a mainland style TGY from Taiwan ie heavily
oxidized or roasted. http://i45.tinypic.com/10r8zrb.jpg The infused leaf is dark almost black green. The crinkled mostly whole leaves are tiny so maybe an early flush. If anything it is a tad lighter in taste than what you expect. $9/180g is a good price for anything from Taiwan. This is a perfect grease cutter. I drank so much of this style in the seventies Im slowly regaining my appreciation. Due to the smelly box I removed the packaging. The thick cardboard box shows little signs of loosing the oily aroma which I mentioned in the King Hsuan post. There are a couple of email addresses on the box. Im going to send a complaint. Jim |
