This tea just keeps getting better. It is one of my all time favorite ripes, one of the best from Yunnan Sourcing. It is a great bargain, and is still available. If you like deep dark strong ripe pu erh, this is a great one. It’s all cleared and very tasty, if not terribly complex.

A yummy tea almost 20 years old! Great flavor, bitter chocolate.

Nice nuggets ;). These are a little more musty than I remember. Still really good and smooth. I forget that when you brew nuggets, it is almost a bottomless cup of dark goodness.

I bough this when it came out. Breaking it out today for my birthday! It is really tasty. Classic Bulang ripe, bittersweet chocolate, thick mouthfeel, robust. Good stuff.

I’ve had this tea for a while now and wow, it is a fantastic ripe. Smooth, but also some bitter, like dark chocolate or espresso. It brews thick and burly. A great example of a ripe done right by Hai Lang Hao.

Trying this again today after a number of years of home storage. There are no floral notes at the moment, it is in that awkward stage where it tastes kind of bland but is still very good. The clarity of the thick amber brew is excellent. Just a hint of smoke and mushroom.

Mine’s still in shrink wrap, one of these days should try.
