sufficiently complex flavor and decently aged. has a herbal, almost fruity quality to it. no musty storage notes. has a hint of what might have once been a smokey flavor.
I am happy to have picked up a full beeng. Its quite different from 2004. actually I liked the (no longer in stock) 2004 better. It had what seem to be higher quality, plump leaves and more thickness, with a distinct prune aroma. but this one is more aged, mellow, easier on the stomach.

I love this one. It is on the way as I may have got the last one.
by the way, the printed ticket inside the wrapper on the cake I got is a bit different from the picture. The last row is not ‘menghai tea factory’, but cnncp instead. I wonder if all of these cakes are the same. http://www.finepuer.com/files/images/chinese-tea-(green-tea-or-green-puer-tea)-2003-menghai-wild-arbor-red-mark-discus-tea-cake-6.jpg
