This is Spring harvest tea.
The color of liquor is gold, and clear. Its taste is sweet. No bitter at all. The smell of the first two steeping is like the floral misxing with the fruit; that is, it is similar to the Qingxin Oolong. Tasting the third or and forth steeping would be very smooth which is the same as Jin Xuan Oolong.
Leaves: delicately hand-rolled into small, green-yellow coloured balls
