Dayi HongYun Pu-erh Tea Cake (勐海大益红韵圆茶) from PuerhShop.com
88

★★★★

(Detailed Review Coming Soon)

Notes:
Delicious. Earthy and rich in flavor with a hint of sweetness on the nose. Nice leathery and woodsy flavor notes, a well-rounded Pu-erh. I steep my Pu-erh’s a lot longer than most, because I enjoy them strong, so my reviews might be skewed compared to other people’s liking. The first and second steep are great with this tea, but its rich flavor fades, thins out past where I like it by the third steeping. But I’d buy it again for sure.

My Ratings…
★ = Didn’t Hate It.
★★ = Not Bad.
★★★ = Me Likey.
★★★★ = Impressive!
★★★★★ = AwesomeSauce!

I have this exact cake. Picked it up at an Asian grocery store, no less. Not a bad cooked pu-erh at all.
