The ‘large’ village I am at has 1000 households, and this year, it’s been rather leisurely. The weather has been poor, but a very excellent batch of small leaf Yellow Gold called ‘Xiao Dan’ varietal was chosen after some time tasting. Folks, Yellow Gold oolong has always been under-noticed, but its fragrance and durable finish always pleases, and heralds what is to come for the Tieguanyin that year.
