ok – thanks for the info. I might get one, I’d like to try it. :)
:)
Have you had the V93 Menghai tuochas? That’s on my list of things to try.
I love this tea, I buy several at a time so that i always have one to drink daily, this is my everyday tea, it isnt the best however it is very good and not expensive and it is very good to drink daily. I double rinse for 10 sec each and brew for anywhere between 30 secs to 1 minute, brews many times i just up the brew time by a few seconds.
Preparation
tommy who is your supplier on this tea. i think i am going to get one of these to try.thanks!
Lost Dog Coffee has it for 9 bucks, Puerhshop don’t have it still, but i’m working on that ( i figure if i bug them about it enough then maybe just maybe they will restock it lol) I sent you a PM with Lost Dog’s link.
Puerhshop can’t restock it cuz they said it is gone forever now(i think they are mad at me for bugging them about it), and i just got off the phone with the guy from Lost Dog and he is out of it now too, so i guess it is gone forever now :(
Love it. From many young shengs I tasted for last year it’s the best one. My personal favorite.
If you are a fan of yiwu, especially GFZ / GSZ / Mahei, you have to taste MGH 1103. Strong aroma (fresh grass & flavorful flowers), great mouthfeel and long lasting anise-like aftertaste. I can feel it for a few hours after ending gongfu session. The taste is very grassy and masculine (no flowers, sweet, but not too much!). This pu is strong and thick (almost oily). I know how good is aged Mansa pu, but I can only imagine how good can be really EXCELLENT young Mansa in future.
P.s Don’t overbrew and don’t use boiling water! Another hint is not to use yixing teapots. MGH 1103 is “too sharp” to be rounded by the effects of the clay. Use gaiwan instead.

Preparation
When I first tried this pu I thought that it was a joke. I had strong feeling that i drink a tea from a chunk of very old board. It was extremely woody!
After airing and storing for a few months I’ve loved this cake. Now it’s one of my favorites.
The taste is very woody and reminds me a lot of excellent FuZhuan and good aged sheng.
Keynotes: extremely woody (with camphor hints), sweet and longest aftertaste.
It’s a very unusual pu and I don’t recommend it to beginners. But it’s a great experience for every tea drinker and you will love it or dislike it at the first sip.

Preparation
This is the first cake of aged sheng that I picked up for myself after long since being afraid of aged sheng out of fear that it would lead me to enjoy shu less. Although as it turns out aged sheng is different enough that it is nothing to worry about. My initial impression is that wet storage aged sheng reminds me more about Liu An tea than puerh, in how it has a lighter and slightly earthy taste to it. The other great thing about this tea is its insane level of reinfusability in that one can literally drink it all day and the tea leaves will out last the heavy tea drinker.
Really?!
for real
But does it taste like V-8? :p
I prolly shoulda had a v-8 today instead
Yuk! V-Blech! Pu-kyrah!
hahah Tommy!
