I’ve been sipping this one for the last couple days. It is just so smooth. There are all the good things I like about ripe pu-erh with none of the bad. The taste is very much horse tack leather. It has an old dustiness about it without seeming musty. There is a kind of fruity note, not exactly raisin but that is the best I can come up with. Also a certain amount of woodsy without being dirt or mushroom. Here is the only issue I have with this one , it is so easy to drink I have to stop myself from chugging the cup.

Yeah…that moment when you’re down to a half-teaspoon and wonder “where’d that go?”

Or you look at your empty cup, then cast a suspicious gaze at your mate, even though you know they don’t like what you are sipping.

My favorite puerh! And it has been out of stock for a long time. I am hoarding a wee bit, and trying to find its doppelgänger.

I am also hoarding the last little bit of this one.
