Encounter with the outstanding Pouchong 60438

Pouchong 60438 is made by a farmer from Pinglin, Taiwan, where the elevation is about 2,100 ft high. Chin Sin cultivar, hand plucked, and approximately 12% oxidized, Pouchong 60438 is produced on April 20, 2009. Luscious floral aroma and full fragrance in the cup. Very soothing and pleasant. The tea farmer, Mr. Wang, could only spare 5 lbs of this tea to me. After few rounds of tastings with our good friends, there are only 11 tins/2 oz sealed tins available. (Thomas 6/12/2009)
