This is a very tasty raw puerh that has not completely lost it’s young sheng sweetness. There was a little bit of bitterness initially but not much. It quickly smoothed out. It was clearly dry stored as it has no wet storage taste to it. That in of itself seems unusual for White2Tea. I got this with the club package and am just getting around to trying it. While this would be a good one to buy for some further aging I am not sure if I will buy it or not. It was good though.
I steeped this twelve times in a 120ml gaiwan with 8.4g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse and a 10 minute rest. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec, 1 min, 1.5 min, and 2 min. If I hadn’t reached my caffeine limit for today this would definitely go a few more steeps.

Excellent. Today I ordered a cake of this tea.
Hope you like it.
You beat me to it. I have this one sitting on the counter. Got to pick another now..
I had a taste of it after airing it a bit, this one is good. It has age to it and still feels like it will age well. I have to actually take notes, I just wanted to try it, I feel like Paul has a very specific preference in his YiWu Sheng and I feel like I could drink his Shengs blindly and know they are from his collection (probably not in reality LOL).
