2007 Liu Bao Tea Cake

The last of my samples provided by Tommy. This one goes down real smooth and doesn’t have much else to it other than earthiness, but I’m enjoying that earthiness a lot. I’m really enjoying pu-erh right now, I think I’ll actually buy some soon.

Not bad at all, i expected it to taste like a ripe puerh but it dosent realy it has a much lighter taste to it but it is very nice i would buy another of these.

One’s impression of Liu Bao is a matter of perspective in how it compares to ripe puerh. Personally I love ripe puerh so Liu Bao comes off as a more plain puerh like tea without as much flavor. I have friends who like Liu Bao more than ripe puerh who say that it has a much cleaner taste. Regardless this is a tea worth trying at least once.
