This is a favorite of mine since I love pumpkin pie. pumpkin pie in a cup with a small touch of half and half to add a creaminess to it. steep for a short time so it does not become bitter. I sweeten with sugar but I bet brown sugar would be even better. Note to myself to try it that way.

good on a cold winter day. not a super strong or sweet tea just enough of the gingerbread taste to make you want a gingerbread man cookie with it. i use a gongfu cup for infusing you may want to changer your steep time as a gongfu has a water to mass ratio like a french press so my steep times are short to get the flavor i desire.

very good afternoon tea slightly assamy taste hints of malt but very smooth with a touch of honey.

One of my favorites wish they made it into a cake larger than 150 grams. dark mysterious woody and subdued floral hints. I resteep about three times. I liked this so much I purchased a 750 gram tin of five and it is a go to when I want a smooth tea at the end of the day. 100 percent top pu-er! You must be a pu-er drinker not for the faint of heart! Re-steep adding about 15 seconds to your prior time I get about 4 out of it.

very smooth with a hint of natural sweetness. earthy and dark good for multiple steeps.

i think this was the second pu-er i had tried. very smooth and mellow with a hit of the cassia on the back end.

bought this tea to age will update in about a year to see how it compares with the other v93s i have.

purchased as a fairly new production tea. i think a few years aging will mellow this tea out some. i think it has too much of a licorice taste for me as of yet,but i am sure with aging that will go away to the smooth menghai taste that i am used to. btw the 2010 star of menghai entirely different.

not too bad just do not oversteep. got this as a sample drinkable but not an everyday tea. did about 185 temp since it was a fruit tea.

another tea in line with the smaller 150 gram Menghai Dayi Wu Zi Deng Ke cake. very similar just a larger version. floral fruity and dark tea good for multiple steeps.earthy aroma. wash tea the first steep discard and drink the second one.
