From Yunnan Sourcing

This is a classic Ripe tea blend, called “V93”, it was most recently released in 2006 and quickly became one the most expensive ripe teas on the market. To this day the 2005 and 2006 V93 Ripe productions have commanded very high prices due to the fact that this is one of the most sought after Ripe teas for everyday drinking. It is smooth and full in the mouth. It is fermented just enough to break down the bitterness of raw pu-erh while lightly fermented enough to preserve the stimulating cha qi and hui gan of a raw pu-erh. After-taste is sweet and thick. Stock up on this Batch 001 release of a modern classic Ripe Pu-erh!

(Note is work in progress)
Very tightly compressed and difficult to pick apart. Perhaps I didn’t store it with enough humidity? Notes of undergrowth, earthy, and a bit metallic with some astringency and low bitteness.

This was a nice ripe puer. I got it A.because I wanted to try something from Menghai and B. because it was quite inexpensive for a 100g cake. The taste is strong and pleasant, with fallen leaves and dry wood. No fishiness, not danky. Nothing too complex or changing over multiple steepings but still consistently pleasant.

It is not a puer for paying-attention-to way of drinking but rather a good tea for absent-minded kind of sipping at work and that how I finished this little cake off in one workweek.
