This was a sample sent to me by Paul at White 2 Tea. This is another excellent Sheng and at $15.00 for 100g, it is a steal. The color of the liquor is a deep bronze. The taste, well let me just say, it is incredible. There are a lot of undertones that lead to a very deep, complex, yet very smooth taste. The two most prominent flavors to me were earthy and smokey. Right after steeping it was earthy and after it cooled a bit the smokey flavor really took over. For a 2002 Sheng, I still can’t believe it is only $15.00.

Wow so quick. What else would you recommend to try ? im on a budget kinda, so not too expensive and not too bitter;)

As far as recommendations I will have to think about it. Most of my favorite Shengs tend to have a lot of kuwei because I really like my pu’er that way.

I don’t mind when it’s pleasant.

I have been a tea drinker almost all of my life. In 2008 I was able to accompany my wife to a conference she had in Shanghai. At one of the dinners I was introduced to the Nectar of the Gods – Pu’er and I have been hooked ever since.
