This ripe has all that I have come to expect from a quality warming Dayi shu with six or more years of age – appealing aroma, free of most fermentation taste, no real bitterness or astringency, rich flavor profile, and decent longevity. The leaf brews just the way I like my shu puer – smooth and dark. The tea liquor yields an earthy aroma that is warm and rich. Mellow and pleasant taste; smooth and rich in flavor with a mix of light oak, caramel and creamy flavors with traces of dark cocoa. The sip delights the mouth with a smoothness on the tongue and then leaves a sweet aftertaste.

Sounds good! Which supplier did you use? All I’ve been able to find is the 2010 Yunnan Menghai Dayi “Yun Ding” or “Yunding” (Clouds) Ripe Pu’er that has a completely different wrapper: http://www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?catId=0&initiative_id=AS_20160725233439&SearchText=Menghai+dayi+Yun+Ding+Ripe
How does this ripe pu’erh compare to http://steepster.com/teas/menghai-tea-factory-berylleb-on-ebay/35545-2011-menghai-dayi-100-year-tribute-cake?
Thanks!
