I thought it was pretty good. I will send you a PM when I have a price per cake. I will have to figure out shipping costs after I have addresses.

I got the first tong today, it looks good, Dayi paper wrapping and the label has the security feature under the black light.

Wondering if anyone has tasting notes or recommendations for any of the lesser known offerings here? Menghai cakes such as the 'autumn aroma', 0772, or Nu Er Gong? I've tried the 08 tuocha, and it is quite good and worth trying.

Bought the 0712, 0752, and 0772. Have not yet tried them. I will begin tasting them soon.

Tried the 0772 today. It still had some residual sheng bitterness to it but it tasted semi aged. It had a nice sweet aftertaste to it but just a little. I think in 6 or 7 years of aging it will be quite good. I think it rates as a solid performer but not spectacular. I did not notice a strong qi but it was tasty.

I have a few of the cakes, and I think they're definitely worth the price, the 8582 especially. Great daily drinker, in my opinion.

Their stock is like bargain bin from record store. What with the Dayi 0712 0732 0752 and 0772? LOL

And no Dayi after 2009…?

All I am interested in is to try the 06 Kunming raw brick and Hong Yun ripe before stocking up.
