Expressing a classic Yiwu apricot-grapefruit nose, this treasure’s conservative Guangdong storage adds a gentle layer of petrichor to a thread of vanilla. Before taking residence in Los Angeles Mar ’22, it exhibited first-stage Manzhuan Zen with the dustiness of light-humid storage. Dust converted to mineral and Zen to apricot. Then there’s the enveloping vanilla. . . Sassy huigan with cheeky sourness at about a 4 piquing salivation, tongue numbing, bitterness at 1. Huigan turns glossy sweet, coating vanilla and apricot remembrances. Balanced astringency keeps things interesting. Qi: heady, not instantaneous but building, totally numbs face, eyelid heaviness. Balanced sweetness (3.75) and thickness (4), which will completely elude drinker if treasure doesn’t sit in open for at least a week.
