I am revisiting this tea today, it’s probably been about 3 years since I had it the last time. I don’t have much of the cake left!

Technically this is a puerh but made from white tea leaves. It tastes a lot like your standard white tea with some light fruit and nutty, almond type flavors. There is a maltiness about the tea too. It has some “hay” type flavors similar too… all in all I will be sad when this is gone. White puerhs are a nice departure from sheng and very mild too. Nice for a quiet time.

Rishi is a solid company Im upset I didn’t get into puer until recently as most of their unique teas are no longer available I really wish I buy their yellow tea most of all

Is the yellow tea gone for good? I found one recently from Dragon Tea House that is really top notch.

I havent seen it for a year or two now I actually just emailed them today asking about it and the maiden ripe which I really enjoyed and felt a little safer with rishi pedigree for quality, ripe can be pretty shady business I usually turn a blind eye but it wouldn’t surprise me if most conditions would be considered unsanitary/unsafe for consumption. I began drinking tea for health but since then like it so much I would gladly continue drinking the stuff I liked even if it was harmful as liquor or cigarettes.
