I think this might be the first cake finished off…I’m not sure whether I should celebrate or allow this to sit for a few more days, realizing that I’ve had a tea in it’s entirety! Pats back?
Honestly, I’ve finished my cake ages ago, but the remainder of the tea belonged to me in sample via swap form; which has now been completely devoured. I must admit, this was one of the first sheng puerhs that I had which made really determine that sheng was/is a good find in my tea journey. The Year of the Monkey, 2016 was a fantastic brew that was both kind, yet bitter to the palate. It was good when brewed lightly, but was even better when pushed to the extreme (nearly boiling water
brought out the bitterness, but it would eventually mellow out…A LOT).
Oh what a joy…..Now, to keep going through my stash!
