Description: The 2005 XiaGuan "Jin Si" (Golden Ribbon) Tuo is a distinguished member of the "Golden Ribbon" series, which started in 2003. This series is celebrated for its use of high-quality tea materials, primarily 3rd grade big tree leaves from Wu Liang and Bu Lang mountains.

  • Flavor:
    • Sweetness: Offers a refreshing sweetness that is well-balanced and not overpowering.
    • Bitterness and Astringency: Contains minor levels of bitterness and astringency, adding depth and complexity without overwhelming the palate.
    • Huigan (Returning Sweetness): Excellent at producing Huigan, enhancing the aftertaste and overall tasting experience.
    • Smoothness: The tea is notably smooth, providing a soothing and relaxing drinking experience.

    • Mouthfeel: Soothing and relaxing, promoting a calm and pleasant experience.

Aging and Storage:

  • Natural Storage: Stored naturally in Guangzhou, the tea has aged gracefully, developing a more refined and mature taste over time.

Historical Background:

  • The "Golden Ribbon" series was introduced in 2003, initially made to order for the Guangzhou Xin Ye tea company. The aim was to create a higher-level tea compared to the already established "Red Ribbon" series, signified by placing a golden ribbon inside the tuo as a mark of distinction.
  • Sub-Series: The "Golden Ribbon" series includes two sub-series: "Shang Pin" (Premium) and the general version. The Premium version uses 2nd grade tea materials from big tree leaves in the Ban Na tea region, offering a mellower and thicker taste with medium-level bitterness and astringency, fast-coming Huigan, and stronger taste.

Recommendation: The 2005 XiaGuan "Jin Si" (Golden Ribbon) Tuo is an excellent choice for Puerh enthusiasts seeking a high-quality, well-balanced Sheng Cha. Its refreshing sweetness, minor bitterness, smooth mouthfeel, and slight smoky flavor make it a versatile tea suitable for both casual and more discerning tea drinkers. Whether enjoyed daily or reserved for special occasions, this tea provides a satisfying and enriching experience reflective of XiaGuan's craftsmanship and dedication to quality.
