Look forward to hearing your evaluation. Not sure that I would have ever put an "American" label on something so obviously Chinese. Just does not feel right...
Good tea drinking,

I got into the AMHAO 0901 this morning. In one word, impressed. It really reminded me of a Dayi Menghai product. Very on par. It had a nice color and clarity. The acidity and viscosity was well done. The flavor was wonderfully Spring. I do believe this may even have enough oomph to store - 7 rounds. Really, not bad for a 10USD beeng. In fact, it really is a give away. Well done Jim.
