Default nine bend dragon

Hi guys,
Any of you guys heard of a tea called nine bend dragon? I had a sample
of it and it was pretty good. I would like to know others opinion of
this tea. I had it hot then iced and was tasty, and a familiar
something, maybe a nuance I have tasted in another tea.

Can you give us a Chinese name or something in pinyin? Where did you
get the tea? More information please.

Here is a note I picked up from the Web. You could probably do a
Google reverse search to see where it came from.

"The Nine Dragon Black Tea is known as the Jiuqu Black Tea in China. It
is from the southwestern outskirts of Hangzhou city. Its name comes
from a nearby spring with nine bends (Jiuqu)."
