Common confusions#
- 锁喉 (throat-locking, a negative feeling)
- Babelcarp records it as a pu'er connoisseur term (also a Jingfeng brand name). In Wuyi usage, 喉韵 already appears in Lin Fuquan's 1940s chapter on scientific evaluation, alongside 山骨/岩骨, the vocabulary from which 岩韵 is thought to derive.
