From white2tea

Lumber Slut was pressed in 2022. The return of our heralded woody blend from 2017.

Blended to favor the dense flavors of petrichor and wood, this style of ripe Puer is focused on unfolding as an experience with notes of camphor and lower umber toned tastes. Will benefit from further aging, but if you’re down for what this tea is offering, we suspect you can drink it straight away without flinching.

Each cake is 200 grams of tea.

I really enjoyed this (am reviewing the minis). From the get-go, this was a Wow tea that I would want to keep in my collection: I think this is a great tea to share with someone new to shou pu’er, especially doing horizontal tasting with a fruity or sweet ripe pu’er for contrast (for example with White2Tea’s Waffles, which I also enjoy).
- oily, thick texture
- aroma and taste are woodsy, but resinous varnished tropical hardwood, so not just petrichor. there is a spicy, incense quality, medicinal volatiles, camphor, and perhaps brown bread with burnt raisins that adds a welcome edge (no bitterness). I found myself enjoying the pronounced lingering aftertaste of the first steepings for ten minutes before brewing again. Yah, super long aftertaste!

Grandpa Style!

After yesterday’s delicious ripe pu’erh, I felt compelled to pull another one out to enjoy while working. I basically tossed a large chunk of the cake into a mug to brew grandpa style. The tea soup is thick as oil with a pungently earthy and heavy woody flavour that’s rounded out by a medicinal camphorous finish. Low key, sloppy, and all around pretty much the best way to brew this tea up. I guess you could say I was feeling a little slutty…

Punchier than the past few years. Has some of that asprin/LaoManE bitterness. A fair bit of that small char like sediment in the bottom of the cup. Very barnyard, very wood. Little to no vanilla. Little to no sweetness. Burly.
