2007 Hua Teng "Wu Liang Ripe Tuo" from Jing Dong Wen Long Tea Factory
93

The tuo itself is very lightly compressed and individual leaves can be easily separated which is really rare amongst ripe pu-erh.

What an excellent ripe pu. Completely devoid of any fishy or damp smells. Its fragrant, clean tasting with an excellent thick mouthfeel. Liquor is deep amber with plenty of cedar and mahagony aromas interspersed with a tiny bit of mushroom and a hint of sweet maltiness, a combination that instantly makes you want to drink more. Later infusions got more darker and more earthy with a touch of welcome biterness on the finish to cut through the sweetness.
Hui gan is mild, yet satisfying but the cha qi hits early and hard, just the way I like it.
