It’s official. I love me some sheng.
Received as a sample and wishing I now had a cake in my hands.
Dry and wet leaves smell really floral and smoky. Flavor wise, 98% of the smoke goes away. Instead you get this gorgeous honeydew melon fruitiness. I’m on infusion 4 and it’s gotten sweeter with each.
Tiny, tiny, tiny bit of bitterness/tanin. That usual “camphor” that comes through. Floral notes. Buttery smoothness. Enchanting aroma. All good here.
Just a wonderful sheng.

One of the best purple buds out there for sure, Never bitter like some others.
Oh and I guess it’s a sheng thing now huh! LOL!
LOL. So it is buds only? That’s a killer for my caffeine intake. But I guess I can cheat here and there. It’s this one, right?

That’s the one! I am contemplating an order from them with EMS, Anyone want to get in and pool an order?
Is it better to order from China store or US? I might get that Menghai 7592 cake that I like as well.
The US store much faster for sure. You would probably have your order from that site quicker than an EMS shipping from the China site. Just watch the site it can be dangerous to you wallet!
LOL. I know. I already figured out I have more tea than I could drink in a year. But I rationalize by saying “this is Puer. It’ll age and get even better”
