Middle of the road. A good ripe pu’erh for the cost, heavily nutty as the name implies. I got strong flavors of roasted brazil nuts, red skinned peanuts, hay, and some strong earthy tones as the infusions went on. Has a somewhat intense flavor; probably not a good starter ripe for newcomers to the style. Brewed Gongfu.

Tastes like stewed or baked cinnamon apples. Has a woody overtone, with a minty tingle on the tongue in earlier gongfu infusions. One of my favorites.

brewed Gongfu style. First infusion is heavy on the tangerine flavor. It’s pleasantly sweet, like a woody orange hard candy. The woody flavors stay, while the sweeter notes fade with later infusions. Overall a pleasant experience.
