Jin Jun Mei brings the warmth of fine honeyed warmth. In the cup there are pine honey, dried fruit, and flowers, and the body feels silken and deep. It enters easily, but the longer you stay with it, the more depth gathers in honey, wood, grain, or fruit. This is a tea that can comfort on an ordinary morning and still reward a slower session when you have time to listen. Its strength is not blunt force, but warmth with character.
