From Teas We Like

A Bulang cake with excellent Malaysian natural dry storage. This is the preferred batch of the double lion series, which was a special commission by the Qiu Xiang company and produced by the Nanqiao factory. Typical Menghai profile: austere and potent with a full, long lasting aftertaste. Lots of woody incense aroma. Even after 15 years of aging, this cake shows remarkable strength. It is beginning to be ready for drinking, but can also be aged longer.

Brewed last 5.3g of sample in a pot today and seemed transformed. Admittedly I have been distracted by other things in the past few sessions, but there’s a fullness that wasn’t present in previous sessions. I’ve used roughly the same ratio at 5.1-5.4g w 90 mL, just in a gaiwan and never felt like it was dialed in properly. Always too hollow and light/floral, or just too bitter/sour, and I couldn’t understand the hype for it. Today’s felt more full and balanced, and the smokiness was a nice complement. I would’ve been tempted to cake with the recent discounted price, but I think it’s too late now and based on the past sessions, seems like too much of a gamble based on my preferences and brewing style.
