Help ID this brick

My wife bought this for me as a gift, I don't know much about pu and haven't drank it very often, I was hoping someone could help me identify it and tell me if it's any good?

It's a 2007 shou carried by Dobra in Czech Republic and US. Decent for the price, tends to be quite sweet and yields 15+ infusions.

I don't really have much experience to compare with when it comes to pu-erh but I enjoyed this tea, I had some the other day and found it to be earthy and very slightly sweet. It made me feel all warm and fuzzy inside :)
