I liked the new v93. I'm a bit of a noob too, but I don't care for older shu because its a little too smooth/sweet. I like the spicy-ness of newer shu. Some tastes too fishy but sometimes i find the smell is more fishy than the taste.

Did you buy yours online?

I've seen other sources say good things about this shu and and want some, both for myself and, since it seems I've managed to turn one of my friends into a pu fanatic, some for her to try out.

Not so sure where to get it though, I see a couple of ebay vendors carrying it but I've no personal experience with any of them.
I also came across jk teashop which sells it really cheap but I've never even heard of this shop before so I'm not sure if buying from them is a good idea.

I just came across jk teashop too and ordered their organic dragon jasmine pearl tea and their imperial long jing...it was so cheap I couldn't pass it up so I'll be seeing in a little while if they sell QUALITY tea for such temptingly low prices

I was pleasantly surprised to see they sell shou mei tea (longevity brows) which seems to be a bit hard to find
