If I am not mistaken, it is readily available here in Singapore. There are many versions. Some raw, some ripe, some big pieces in exquisite boxes, etc.. Not exactly expensive. the one in the red wrapper is very nice.
Now, there is also another batch that may be from another factory where the pictures are in color.
I will go check out the prices if any one is interested.

I just drank the first cup of it. Its very good, I'm near certain it will be extremely good in a couple of years.
It has the taste of spice, with a hint of honey... it almost reminds me of the taste of mead.
The downside is that it does seem to be losing quite a bit of flavor with each additional infusion, faster than most pu erh.

as fare as the strength i think as it gets older an increase in leaf might help thatI just drank the first cup of it. Its very good, I'm near certain it will be extremely good in a couple of years.

Re: 2006 Gotheborg Silver Tip 7360 Pu-erh Tea Cake
Hi not sure if this thread is still alive? I just bought 1 cake and thought it waa pretty good! Its full and deep and also a little sweet.
However i googled the cakes name and realized there are a bunch of different packaging. Some are fully green, some fullt red and some coloured. All of them seem to be a 2006 Gotheborg though.
Anyone knows the difference between these different versions?

I've never tried it, but I am sure that it has a pleasant smell and wonderful aftertaste.

It's quite common in Singapore. I tried it once and I liked it very much. Full bodied, woody and smooth.
