From a new FL order. This is much better than I remember the Miyun being in 2022. Maybe this year is a better crop? He did write on his website that he was able to get some fairly high quality shengtai for this one.
Anyways, it is very well balanced and a great value at $0.17/g. A bit of sweetness, some mild bitterness and astringency in steeps 2-5, and an incredibly fruity smell to the dry leaves! I really enjoy this one, though it’s not the best puerh I’ve had or anything. Lasts 13-14 steeps. Also got to drink it in my new square glass teacup from FL, which is beautiful :).
Probably will have to buy a cake :).
