I'd avoid dragon tea house. They were selling fake jin dayis, and based on this thread

it looks like they might be selling fake xiaguan as well.

I've had some good experiences with the 'Fu Tea Store' and 'China Best Tea Store' on AE but wouldn't put my hand even close to a fire for any of those vendors. For the higher end or authentic and enjoyable aged tea I'd look elsewhere anyway.
Simply don't expect to get more than what you've paid for - anywhere.

So the V93 2015 arrived today. It is the first pu erh I've ever tried. Under UV light, the label shows DAYI and some random lines. I tried it right away. Brewed in gaiwan. The taste was interesting, but I had the feeling and still have (after 20min.) that I will vomit (I drank it without meal - for breakfast). I really don't know why, because I really enjoyed the taste. As for the taste I don't know how to describe it, but after finishing with the tea it left me with pleasant taste of para nuts.
Is it original?
Here are some pictures:

Still too young to drink. Try one from 2010 or so. It will have settled down a bit.
