This stone-pressed sheng from Bangwei Village is a delight! It is full of beautiful, high quality leaves which give the appearance of having been carefully folded and twisted lightly – although I know this is highly unlikely. They are very large with a greenish brown color. The dry leaf suggests smells of the earth and green grass – a very light and pleasant aroma.
The tea liquor is bright and juicy with a nice lively mouthfeel. Smooth to the taste with all the sweet, earthy notes one would expect from a high quality sheng. There is a lovely hint of sweetness throughout. This is my first experience with EoT. Recent notes by Sammer314 led me to order several different 10-20g samples last month and I look forward to enjoying more “tastings” with these high quality puerhs.

Drinking this tea at the moment. This tea has a “pure” taste that I cannot describe. I find several other EoT teas have this clean pure taste. Misty Peaks tea also has this character.

Haven’t tried the Misty Peak teas but I definitely get something special in this one. I should say a big thank you since it was only due to your frequent notes on EoT that led me to order several samples. So, Thank You!
