Kunming Chuncheng 2006 Arbor Yinhao Tuocha 50g

I took off the paper of this tuocha and smelled the leaves with anticipation.  Hmm, tobacco-ish and tea-like! So far so good, but when I tried this, I started to gag.  This tea is incredibly astringent and tastes awful, even after 5 infusions! I never form a full opinion of a tea after just one tasting session, but this one left a very strong impression on me.  Maybe, just maybe, some age will tame it out, but for right now I can't drink it.
