This tea is quite good. It has a fair amount of fermentation flavor and virtually no bitterness. It had a nice sweet taste to it. There were some notes of chocolate in there and there were some fruity flavors. Overall this one was quite good. The fermentation taste was quite tolerable, not unpleasant like some ripe. Menghai Tea Factory did a good job on this one.

I steeped this ten times in a 100ml 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, and 1 min.

Flavors: Chocolate, Earth, Fruity, Sweet

Preparation
Boiling 8 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I am Allan. I live and work in Long Island, New York. I have been amassing a tea collection for nearly two years and have spent way too much money. I now try to buy mostly Puerh as I like it most and it lasts nearly forever. Black tea has a habit of going bad. If anyone is interested in tea swaps I am open to ideas and have quite a cupboard.
