Alright I missed out on the first puerh tasting packages from puerh shop :x , anyway I was just wondering if anyone would be interested in doing another one, but maybe with some different Pu's. We could set it up through puerh shop again or even with Yunnan Sourcing. Just thought it might be a fun summer time treat. Everyone feel free to post your thoughts.

I'm all for it. I like pu but I basically use the shot-in-the-dark purchasing technique.

I use the same technique so I thought this would enable people like us to learn from others by tasting the same teas and writing reviews on the forum. I t could be like it was before like 6 samples 2 oz. each for like $20. A nice cheap way for people to learn.

After 18 months, I am a "shot-in-the-dark" buyer also.

I am about to order these things from Puerh shop

1998 Premium Hongtaichang Pu-erh Tea Cake 2 oz

2005 Green City Peak Arbor Pu-erh Tea Cake 2 oz

I thought it would be a nice way to try a very expensive cake for not alot of money (quality over quantity). And the 2005 Green I heard was really good and I know were I can get it cheap so I want to sample it. If anyone else would like to order one of the same samples, do so, then we can talk about our results here, and hopefully learn a bit along the way. :D
