Best ripe, ages very well

"Best ripe there is. Package new. Very smooth, not harsh"

Jeffrey i. (5/5)

Excellent but expected more at this price.

"This is a well-aged shou with a mild woody/resinous character. Very nice “milky” mineral notes, slight petrichor and a soft/smooth mouthfeel. Aroma is woody and resinous, reminiscent of rosewood."

Jamie S. (4/5)

A pleasant daily drinker that isn’t

"This is a nice, enjoyable aged ripe that tastes the way that an aged ripe should: earthy, thick, smooth, satisfying and pretty long-lasting. It’s solid but fairly ordinary and unspectacular. There’s nothing wrong with this tea as such, but there are lots of other aged ripes on the market - here on YS and elsewhere - that taste just as good or better and cost between 2 and 4 times less than this one. That is the reason I can’t possibly recommend ever buying it. Get yourself some basket aged shou instead, it’s like 1/3 the price and I enjoy it more, if anything."

TY (3/5)

Excellent

"I had a sample size of this tea from several years back, which I drank today, 9/11/17. According to my notes, it was priced at $139 for an entire cake at that time (currently $249). As the details above state, the taste is very smooth, complex earthy and sweet, creamy mouth feel, and faint but pleasant aftertaste. The tea gets better, more nuanced with further brewing -- I used a gaiwan with ~15 second brews after the initial rinse. If I were wealthier than I am, this cake would be on my list of must-haves."
