A true classic,the 7581 from CNNP. While the 7581 does remain a classic it has been critized for its quality inconsistancy and this is why Jing Tea Shop doesn’t carry this puerh tea more often. Although, the inconsistancy is a major issue, the good and sometimes great productions of 7581 are enough to make us forget the others. After a few years of good storage, this 7581 is really what cooked pu erh be about. A thick and smooth body, with depth and a lovely flavor palette going on with leather and wood. The tea liquor has a lovely sweetness to it and a pretty long aftertaste, this is a great value for the price.
