Pu-erh tasting notes [PREVIOUS POST COPIE BROKEN]

by RookieCookie » Jun 22nd, '16, 02:10

2005 Hong Tai Chang "Far-year Qizi Bingcha"
Ripe
Strong chaqi, followed by subtle camphor and sweetness with shengjin.
Survival of approx 12 brews.
Red and brown colored tea.
This was my first Pu-erh cake and I am not disappointed, it is nice.

2013 Jingye "Yiwu Wild Cake"
Raw
Vegetal taste followed by fruit notes before turning bitter with shengjin.
Survival of approx 5 brews.
Yellow tea.
Quite good for drinking it as a sheng, I have a feeling it will age well.

Cake's wrappers have been removed as I am close to finishing them. :roll: Here are some pics from the internet of them:
