Excellent ripe!

"Very nice balanced ripe with plenty of qi. Taste is smooth with wood and lychee notes. Steeps 7 to 8 steeps for me. Good value."

— David S. (5/5)

Camphor and fresh corn sweetness

"I love this tea... so thick and sweet with a fresh corn aroma and mouth-feel. No wo dui!"

— Ning W. (5/5)

2010?

"If this truly is a 2010 tea then it sure does have quite a wet pile fishy funk smell to the dry leaf. Thankfully none of the funk makes it's way into the taste after a quick rinse of the leaves. I've sessioned this a few times over several months to try and get to know this cake and so far I'm underwhelmed. Yes there is a sweetness present and also a hint perhaps of some bitterness. It's a decent value for the price but I suggest spending a little more for a higher quality tea. This one isn't bad by any means but compared other shou puerhs I've had that cost a little more it doesn't hold up. 3 stars is the best I can give this."

— Scott P. (3/5)
