Taste characteristics:
The Chinese term for "Yu Le" depicts the joy of a school of fishes swimming freely in the water. Yu Le also describes how this tea gives one that same free and unrestrained feeling after having had a cup of this tea. Yule is made from trees in an old-growth tea garden exclusively owned by Denong Tea Company. It is balanced, fragrant, and finishes with a pleasant coolness in your mouth. You will be called back for a second cup. What's more, this tea has been tested and certified by SGS for the absence of chemical residue.

Good Complex Sheng

By Johnt3
I've been sampling this tea occasionally since I purchased it some months ago. It has taken several sessions to begin to properly appreciate it. Not a tea that I will breakout to introduce someone to sheng. Strong floral flavor and aftertaste, honey sweetness, with a long-lasting cooling sensation in the mouth. As the session progresses, the tea evolves in an interesting and pleasing way, becoming smoother, but retaining a thick body, making for a good long session.
Our Response:

Thank you for your nice review of this tea. I share your evaluation of this tea, in that it takes a while to appreciate this tea, but no question it is a high-quality tea.
