Thank you; it sounds like aged green tea is a bit like aged white tea, insofar as they might be aged accidentally instead of intentionally.maple wrote: ↑Tue Jun 15, 2021 7:24 amAndrew S
normally green tea = cold. But not for all, there's something special green could tend warm. Hope you can meet warm green soon.![]()
Aged green is rare due to...no one will save green/ aged green for purpose.
I have limited aged green (<10) experience. But I always have very good experience when it have good store.
In my post, it was saved in big plastic bag and big tin can (5kg) decades. cleanness make it special.
And it seems like a lot of wulong is aged accidentally as well instead of being aged on purpose; I guess that if people age tea in general, it's either in large quantities because it's supposed to age and supposed to increase in value with age (like pu er), aged in small quantities for personal use (like yancha), or aged accidentally and then sold if it's still good and there's a market for it.
@LeoFox: I may have tried huang shan mao feng a long time ago, but I cannot recall. The problem I face with trying green tea is that I'd rather spend my time and effort drinking old tea and roasted wulong instead which I'm far more likely to enjoy in terms of flavour and feeling, and the little green tea that I get every now and then gets relegated to leaves-in-a-cup duty when I am not exactly paying attention to the tea (and when white tea performs that duty better for me).

Drinking “Organic Sencha” from The Steeping Room in a Seigen yunomi donated by @debunix.
I like this sencha because it is always forgiving of my distractions and is clean enough to be an every day sipper while I work. It gets some fascinating character when pushed near the end but is otherwise consistent throughout the day.

Just metaphorical sweetening by having the flowers on the tea table, no flowers added to the tea. I broke a few stems as I was photographing them this morning.
