Some of the 2016 GOP productions got me pretty woke.
Harsh tokes, and I doubt they’ll age well.
2012 Tea Urchin GFZ (butterfly) was pretty waking for me.
I agree with Garrett. A couple of the 2012 Tea Urchin shengs got me hooked on good raws: the GFZ and the Man Zhuan. Also, this selection from Verdant had a big influence on my early pu-erh drinking.

Another vote for the TU 2012 GFZ as the first young sheng to open my eyes to the possibilities here. But the W2T 2014 Last Thoughts has become my benchmark for the class.
