    Oh nice, I was planning on drinking this tea this weekend! I only tried two Zheng Si Long puerhs so far but I really enjoyed them both.

      Right on. I’d be curious what you think. This one is quite good IMO.

        Just finishing up a session with it. I think my notes aren’t too far off from yours. I definitely agree with the thought of it being an mix of soft but strong. It’s not a big flavour bomb tea, but there is still a power there. Good balance of sweet and bitter (I didn’t get as much bitter as you guys seem to, but I’m brewing a bit cooler), floral, late steeps go to raisin-ish taste. You guys think it could benefit from a few years of storage – I’ve got enough left to try again so I’m going to sit on it and revisit down the line.
