Brewed this tea western, gongfu, and this time grandpa style.

Ehhh wasn’t particularly impressed or unimpressed. I’m starting to realize I really just prefer greener oolongs and this lightly roasted dong ding is solid but not that special imo.

Might repurchase if there’s a nice sale and I’m low on my oolong stock.

Smooth and sweet. Initial steeps were slightly funky, which is typical of ripe.
I’ve been discovering that I don’t really like ripe that much… but this is one that I might still stock for occasional indulging.

Great Sheng. I’m still pretty new to pu erh, but I definitely tasted the floral and sweet notes immediately. In later steeps, I think I tasted a bit of green pepper too (which was interesting bc I don’t usually like green pepper).
