I can't tell you if they're real or fake, at least the pics look real enough.
Ziyun is at least 30% more expensive per gram, so I'd imagine Anxiang is a better deal.
Ah, Shu. I might look into this cake- I know I saw it back in the day, but not lately...

Yes. I was just linking in general to Angelina's. Oh, and I'm a she.

No worries,

Angelina's teas used to have a buggy website that looked like it was out of date. Glad it's a lot nicer these days...

02 Banzhang, smooth mellow sweet and slight smokiness and sweet astringency, lingering mouth feel right down to the throat. Lots of oomph. No roughness, no bitterness and the typical Banzhang after effects, lips smacking sweetness, even the cups smells fragrant after the tea has been consumed.
09 Single Linchang estate tea by a Taiwan company (the name escapes me). Very subtle gingerly sweet, not as rough as I had expected from teas that young.
Both very enjoyable and pleasant.

Just tried a sample of the 2012 Snow Mountain Ancient Tree cake from Puerh shop -- a bit of bitterness up front, but a delightfully floral and smooth aftertaste that lasted for the first five infusions (and came back a little later).
Not sure if I'd drop $35 on the cake, but a very tasty drink indeed!
