Official Pu of the day

Naked 97 Wild Yiwu Zhang Xiang Raw - Promo price (though still expensive), cause it is naked. The shop claims the paper was eaten/destroyed by white ants... i didn't know white ants eat on the paper... hmmm

2007 Xiaguan "Mabei" Tuocha - Not the usual XiaGuan taste. No smoky. Light. Quite easy to drink now.

2011 Zhong Cha Liu Bao 7208 - Still new. Taste like ripe pu.

Saw this ship made from elephant bones and tusks

1998 Menghai 8582 raw

[auhckw]

2008 Liu Bao Raw - I didn't know there is raw liu bao. Taste was quite ok, lighter/greener version of ripe liu bao

[auhckw]

2011 Dayi Early Spring - this is extremely strong. not smoky. bitter of all bitterness. Find it very hard to swallow on the 3rd brew onwards. The good bitter aftertaste lasted very long. This is not for the weak taster

[auhckw]

2003 Silver Dayi Raw - Taste was quite good from 1st to 4th brew as it was not strong then, but from 5th brew onwards it gets a bit tough to drink. Quite kick. This used to be very smoky when new, but the smokiness has now gone down.

2007 Menghai Golden Needles White Lotus, carmelicious & mellow for a busy day when I need grounding.

1998 Menghai 8582 raw

How was this one? I think I've had similar, or maybe slightly older (1996?) and I really enjoyed it.

The other stuff looks interesting as always! I did not realize liu bao could be green either, but it makes sense

People had already drank it many brews before I came. So there wasn't much out of it any more. But the taste of aged tea is there which is quite nice.

Raw liu bao like raw pu is cheaper than ripe. But when it is old, it can be more expensive. I have not drank raw aged liu bao before, hope to try in the near future.

2004 Dayi Organic Peacock Chiao Moo - Dry. Bitter. Doesn't give the Chiao Moo taste... hmmm

Also the Nei Fei seems like it is sticked on the outside with the logo facing inside... hmmm

[auhckw]

Gone through Aging Green Puerh - this is what it says in chinese on the large urn containing the loose pu. Taste is wet woody. I coudn't appreaciate it. Too wet for my preference.

[auhckw]

2007 Xia Guan Kai Men Hong (open Door Red) Raw - Has the typical Xiagun smoky signature. Good tea but normal kind of taste. Nothing fancy. The box is nice though

[auhckw]

2001 Meng Ku Wild Raw - Wild taste indeed. Nice to drink. Not too strong.
