Brewing this up tonight.
I got this out a few hours ago and did a rinse and let it sit to open up.
Brewing was about 9 grams in the easy Gaiwan. I got some nice chunks with good leaf from this cake.
I did 3 quick brews into my big cup. This one is soft but really nice. The flavor notes are across the spectrum. Early notes in the sip are buttery, some bitterness and the sweet comes early without searching for it. The aftertaste will linger a while on this one. The brew was a light golden that didn’t indicate this level of notes. Most younger teas don’t exhibit the broad spectrum of this one. The later aftertaste is reminiscent of some LBZ I have had. wish I had a tong of this…….

i love this one
Haven’t tried mine yet, but this review makes me want to.
Isn’t it so intriguing…
It sounds very intriguing.
A tong!
I get super hungry when I drink this tea. Anyone else get that?
With most puerhs I experience that effect.
Me too. i eat whatever is around. Non stop. not only with this tea, with sheng in general. My theory is its working my metabolism cause i dont gain weight.
It’s supposed to improve/increase digestion. I drink puerh sometimes for my indigestion and acid reflux.
@teatortoise I love shou when the re flux gets acting up for sure.
Sheng gives me the munchies big time especially younger ones
I agree with all the above. Munchies, interesting and metabolism.
TeaDB recommends Cheetos.
Even a strong high afterward.
Shous are definitely your friend when the stomach is feeling weird. Young Sheng does help me if I eat greasy food, I feel like it subsets fat the or aids my tummy digest it.
I’ve yet to try this one, but if mrmopar recommends I’m looking forward to it :D
