I came across this cake today and was wondering if anyone has tried it:

Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
Nope, I have not. The price seems extremely attractive for a 1994 tea.
Odd though, the picture of the beeng looks rather green, but the one 'chunk' looks a bit redder; I guess it could just be a lighting issue. The brewed tea and spent leaves look about right...?

Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
There are lots of cakes out there with this wrapper, with varying ages and quality. This doesn't look 90s, maybe mid 2000s
Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
I haven't tried that one but looking at those pictures it can't possibly be that old. Another odd thing to mention is the 09 Dayi 7542 selling for US$129. That should be a pretty good indication that something it not right with that vendor. Reminds me of bear's post about Ten Ren. Hmm
Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
That $129 price is per tong, not per cake. No comment intended about the validity or lack thereof of vendor's wares.G-off-re wrote:I haven't tried that one but looking at those pictures it can't possibly be that old.

Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
lol. Thought that was a bit odd since people have said good things about them. A tong makes sense for that price.
Re: 90s sheng: Yunnan Jiangcheng
Thanks for your replies and that's why I was asking in this forum. $74 bucks is way too attractive for a 1994 beeng! Hmm...I will move on with this one.
Has anyone had any experiences with Yunnan Colourful and their product quality?
Cheers.
