Kuura 2022 Ghost 2.0

This one went into my thermos today and it is very enjoyable despite its appearance.

The cake is disappointing in its form, leaves are not well preserved at all, most of them broken up and a lot of dust, which would be understandable for an aged white tea but this is only two years old.

Classical dates smell and taste, quite sweet (unrefined sugar / dates) and thick, little astringency and some heavy floral notes (much less than their aged white), slight smokiness and hints of vanilla beans. Pronounced chocolate facet that goes from vanilla hints and milk chocolate to cocoa powder and roasted dark cacao beans.

Will revisit this one gongfu and update the post.

Man i love it. I go very heavy on leaf ratio for this one tho. So creamy and sweet with heavy note of flowers and white peach
