Misty mornings

"This Raw Puerh is a awesome choice for any tea lover whether you’re beginning or a experienced connoisseur. The first 3 brews are thick, sweet, and astringent. Surprisingly light on the stomach. Later brews the soup starts turning into more flowers and bitter notes, which is very still pleasant on the palette. I have drunk more then half the cake and am reluctant to age due to the already delicious soup it makes."

Not too different from the He Tao Di

"I wanted to see how similar this was to the He Tao Di, since it shared a very similar description. They are share many things in common. The flavor profile in the description is spot on. There is a lovely brinyness and orchid essence in both flavor and fragrance. This one has more depth and saccharin-like sweetness without going overboard. It's medium bodied while the HTD is more viscous. My wife first thought she was drinking a Dan Cong oolong! There's a very nice, prolonged mouthfeel and a pleasant feeling in the throat. It's a fine tea."
