I’m bumping this up so I can look at it tonight. Need to find a Special Dark replacement and I’m going to start with the teas in this thread. What is everyone else thinking about replacing Special Dark with?

happy to split experiences with you if you want

Always happy to share experiences. I have a cake of the one Boychik recommended, so I can send you some of it:
7.) http://steepster.com/teas/puerhshop-dot-com/25924-2011-mgh-1108-mengku-ripe-pu-erh-tea-brick – 81, $12/250g (“cherry covered chocolate”)
I’m going to go through the list when I get home and see what else I haven’t tried. :)

I have a few oz left. I think I bought 4 ounces.

I’ve had some good loose puerhs from EBay lately, Berylleb, Streetshop88, and Shanghai Story, but I don’t know if they qualify as chocolate.

SD gone forever? Nooooo!

looseTman said

Unfortunately yes.

Ok I’ve been through the list, did some research, and I’ve either tried, have, or am not interested in all but the Crimson Lotus 2012 bulang gushu. I’ve been looking at the Crimson Lotus site and I don’t really see anything else I’m interested in other than an amazing yixing pot….. not sure which is worse – buying more tea or buying more teaware…..

Wow, I totally missed this discussion and didn’t see it now until it was bumped. Sounds like some really good teas mentioned.

Just drank a 2011 from Streetshop88 and while I only western brewed it before work it tasted chocolaty to me.
