Jin Xuan Milky Baozhong Oolong
**There is about 500g of this tea left and the delicate flavor won't last until Christmas. I have put it on sale so perhaps some might enjoy it before then. It still lives up to its description but won't by 2019. Great deal for a daily drinking Baozhong!**
A classic sweet, milky Baozhong, this tea has more depth and subtleness than usual Baozhongs. Grow chemical-free at our Pinglin partner farm, multiple infusions will bring new flavors with each pour. Like silky-smooth jasmine milk tea!

Perfect first tea
If you are new to gongfu I have to recommendations for teas to try: A good spring TieGuanYin and this BaoZhong. These two teas share approachable complexity while not being too difficult to brew. This BaoZhong starts with a nice rose and jasmine scent that persists jnto the taste. The tea has a slightly sour cherry and almond note similar to a Ya Shi dancong but does not have the dancong bitterness. Texture is quite creamy, and the finish brings just enough dryness to make you want to keep drinking. The fruity notes fade through the session and ends with a nice floral sweetness. If you know someone who says they don't enjoy tea, this is probably your best bet to pique their interest.
