The first thing I noticed about this was the fermentation flavor, it was thick with it. It was also sweet and relatively tasty. This is definitely a good puerh but needs some aging to mellow out. I put it through eight steeps and there was fermentation flavor even in the eighth steep.
I brewed this eight times in a 120ml gaiwan with 10g leaf and boiling water. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, and 30 sec.

Out of curiosity, I’ve never had a tea from the current year! Is it drinkable or its like a over smoked tea where it mask everything?
It’s drinkable but the fermentation flavor is powerful. Those with an aversion to fermentation flavor best avoid this one.
