So this was the one tea I started Sunday, as I also had leaves from a couple other teas I continued with from the day before. This was the 2005 Menghai area wild material raw brick from Curated Puerh Box 0003. I used 8g, quick wash and a bit of a rest before getting going with the session.
At around 12 years old, this sheng produced a golden liquor and a soft, sweet aroma. It was smooth and oily in the mouth and sweet on the tongue, with just a bit of dustiness that revealed itself as it gradually opened up.
This was an easy one to enjoy and I will enjoy further exploring its subtleties in a future session!
Flavors: Dust, Smooth, Sweet
