Dark or aged comparison sample. Aroma lasted better than body and the liquor stayed brown to reddish. The session called it aged Tie Guan Yin, but the package identifies Black Oolong (LBT0040); the exact tea identity remains unresolved.

Dry aroma: Aged dried-fruit association

Wet aroma: Rose, berries and some milk

Taste: Roast, minerals, sweetness and aged dried fruit

Mouthfeel: Body thinned after the break

Finish: Mineral character became clearer as body thinned; flavor held well when cooled
