This is a well aged Guangdong storage ripe pu-erh tea pressed in 2008 by the Lao Man'e Brand.   This is composed of a blend of gong ting, te ji, grade 1,3,5 ripe tea leaves wet piled from tea leaves harvested in the Ba Da mountains and Bu Lang mountains.  The wet pile batch was done with a medium-light level of fermentation to preserve more of the raw "sheng" character of the tea leaves.  The result is an aromatic tea with plenty of fruity sweetness and just a little bit of chocolate bitter character.

Great Pu-er Tea

"fantastic, great product"

Amazing Selection Aesthetics Wonky

"Amazing service all around. Wish they had more attractive packaging. Feels very business and commerical oriented. Needs better aesthetics imho."

— Steven E. (5/5)

Wow!!! Lovely Pu-erh!!!!

"The taste, aroma, and feeling of this Pu-erh is 10/10!!! The taste is the perfect balance of richness. Not too overpowering and not too subtle. It is very smooth with a good earthiness. There’s definitely some chocolate and fruit notes in some of the steeps (can’t remember which steeps but for sure there!) the aroma smells like fresh baked sourdough bread or like sourdough starter / yeast without being off putting. The cha qi is also very present in this tea. Such a nice calming and relaxing feeling. Great pu-erh! One of the top ones from YS imo!!!"

I'll get to it after I finish the four I'm working on.

"Bought this a couple of months ago. I drink a lot of tea a day, but I have a lot of tea to go through. I expect in will be a few months before I get to breaking into that cake. Fwiw, I have not been disappointed in any of the teas I have bought from you. Thanks."
