The first character is clearly "gold" jin. But the other three I can't >>figure out. Boxwood?
What am I drinking? It's some sort of light oolong.
It’s Jin1 Tan2 Que4 She2, or [place name] Sparrow Tongue, which is a >cultivar that I *think* is usually made into Long Jing style green tea.
But I’m sure you can tell the difference between green and oolong.
