The throat sensation is a cool, comfortable feeling formed in the throat. This sensation makes your breathing particularly smooth and highly pleasant. It also creates a feeling of returning sweetness and saliva production in the throat, with the aroma lingering for a long time. Moreover, when breathing, this sensation is brought into the mouth with each breath, leading to the illusion that your throat can also taste sweetness and aroma.

The throat sensation occurs because when the tea has abundant inner substance, the flavors accumulate and release in the throat after drinking. Terrace tea lacks sufficient inner substance, so the flavors release before they can accumulate, preventing the formation of a throat sensation. This throat sensation in ancient tree tea can last for 20-30 minutes after drinking. The longer the throat sensation lasts, the richer the inner substance of the tea.

Choosing a Pu-erh tea that brings you enjoyment is one thing, but if you intend to collect it, this is not enough. You must also consider the two characteristics the tea exhibits: persistence and stability.
