“Quantitative Unease”. In case you missed it; we pressed some real nice huangpian and are offering it whatever price you think it’s worth. Pay what you feel, minimum $1, maximum 5 cakes per person. It’s going pretty quick, so get amongst it. The tea itself is very thick and smooth, with some nice sweetness that will build as it ages. I’ve been drinking it almost every day since it landed. We hope this gives you a chance to add some good drinking into your life, whatever you circumstances may be.

This one went quickly; thanks to everyone who participated, it was an enjoyable experiment. The average price per cake people ended up paying was around $16 AUD or so. The highest someone paid was $65 AUD. The lowest of course was $1. We hope you enjoy the tea when it arrives. If you nabbed a tong, this one will truly age wonderfully if you can keep those grubby mitts off it.

I’ve learned a lesson on storage today. Especially in regards to puerh storage. Now, I usually have zero issues, but I had this cake broken down (likely to use as a daily drinker, but it lay forgotten), placed in a Ziplock baggie, and mixed in with a lot of unopened stuff (the container was 90% empty since the majority of the teas are vacuumed sealed oolongs awaiting their turn in my rotation). This is a result in being scatter minded during the midst of packing/moving, and sitting in a container for a few months…Anyway, I tried the broken cake and it was muted. The notes really hit in the aftertaste and very little in the initial tasting. I remembered that I did have a second, untouched cake, found during the recent puerh rotation….so, an experiment was necessary…

The second time was a success. There were brighter notes of pear and apricot, as I usually affiliate with huangpian material. This tea was something ‘affordable’ and it wasn’t really ever expected to be something amazing…Huangpian typically ages kind of strangely, so I find that it’s something to be had immediately, or stashed away for many years to come. After 4 years, this still has time to grow…the storage is fine, but I’ve learned my lesson with the previously opened/broken cake (I’ve stashed it deep in bottom of the other cakes to grow once more).
