First steeps were very mild but i knew its deceiving. on a 3rd steep it hit me. it is strong bitter tea but i like it a lot. only few months ago i probably wouldnt be able to drink it. Besides being bitter its incredibly smooth, even creamy. and there is a sweetness comes in the end of the sip. very happy i was able to try this sample. its a swap from Instagram member. i need to ask him if he is on Steepster.

It’s punchy for sure. But I like it
I’m seriously thinking of push aging mine. There is no way I’m gonna live long enough for it to age naturally.
Cwyn, You can send it to me to age in the “pumidor”…
I may skip this one, I have enough bitter shengs for now :D
Mr mopar, yeah I might do that.
I’m putting mine in the shengidor. When the shengidor is finished, which it almost is. Thanks mr mo!
I’m on steepster and enjoying the NA2 right now :) I love that tea… I’d be curious to see how it aged out but honstly I’m about halfway throught the cake already :)
im picking it up with my next order ;)
