The smell of the brick is beautiful. Gives me strong hints of strawberry. Brewed this gongfu style starting at 30 secs and adding 15-30 each steep.
1st & 2nd Steep: These steeps give a smooth feel with no astringency at all. The flavors remind me of vanilla and berries.
3rd & 4th Steep: The vanilla becomes toned down a bit and a more floral taste appears. Still super smooth.
5th Steep & beyond: Floral taste gets stronger but the sweetness stays around somewhat. A slight astringency sets in as you get deeper.
This is absolutely one of my favorite teas and I can’t recommend it enough.
Flavors: Floral, Smooth, Strawberry, Vanilla

Was it hard to break? I am going to order this but I do not have all these fancy pu-erh needles and trays so if it is a toughie I would rather pass.
It was very difficult to break for me. Had to pull out some knives from the kitchen. In my opinion its so good I will be getting some needles and tools.

OK, thank you, something to think about. Especially since it is priced so reasonably.
