heres about the 3rd infusion (cant see the dust/opaque here, but you
can see the leaf)http://img409.imageshack.us/my.php?i...fengyswdw3.jpg

That looks very much like a green mao feng I had from Yunnan Sourcing.
This was a thicker, tougher leaf and not small buds, very similar to
yours.

Not small, perhaps - to be expected if it's the Yunnan large leaf
varietal - but buds nonetheless. You would expect the buds to have
opened after three steeps, after all. If you look carefully, the tips
are there in the image.

Yes, indeed. Old eyes.
I happen to absolutely LOVE this tea.
I bought some from Scott earlier in the year and have gifted it to
every dear friend, as well.
It's got a wonderful sweetness, not vegetal and somewhat floral.
It's resilient and holds up to multiple steepings very easily.
Nice to know someone else is savoring this tea!
