This tea right here is the one the made me realize each season has so many different elements that can change its production versus the next few years or the past few. The 2015 was so deep in flavor for a young tea and the 2005 was so loud in its taste that this one seems to be some kind of punk who thinks he is ll that but isn’t.

$90+ for a cake… surely it says something if the 2015 cost more than its older cousin who has some hairs on its chest, or so you would think.

The mouth dryness is still quite strong and the lasting flavor in the mouth is nice, but its nowhere near as good as the other You Le productions that were featured and I hate saying it… but dang this one just isn’t worth it ; maybe that means yet as it could change.

Glad to have had the three to compare though because it really opened up my understanding that pu’erh is just like oolong in the sense that each year may have someone new processing it, or maybe the temperatures were different, possibly the climate was off, just so many things that can differ before storage, aged, water….tea has a lot to configure in what makes it what it is.
