I got a sample of this with my order-before-last but have been putting off drinking it. I requested different samples but mine must have gotten mixed up with someone else’s. I had this puerh before, having requested a sample last year when my family still lived near by. I brought it over to their house and we all sampled a tiny 2oz cup of the tea. My parents liked it, I remember. I wasn’t too impressed, but I never logged it. having this tea in my cupboard again, I wasn’t motivated to brew it. But today, I decided to give it another try. It isn’t so bad really. I don’t love it, but I like it better than I did the first time. It’s very very different from most (shu) puerh. Not as “heavy” to me. Not has fishy either. A lot of puerh-haters might even like it. It’s still earthy, like fresh soil and also has a sweet fruitiness (other reviews suggest plum or prune. . I guess that could be it). I would definitely drink it again, but probably won’t order it for myself.

Oh no, so sorry to hear that you got someone’s samples. If you order from us again (don’t like to be presumptuous), remind me and we will give you 4 samples next time.
oh, thats ok! I went ahead and ordered the two teas I wanted to sample when I ordered just before your office closed last time, so Im all set!
Glad you were able to try the teas you wanted but still feel free to add extra samples. :)
