Another dry-aged ripe beauty from Menghai! A humble looking bamboo leaf wrapped brick with no nei fei belies its complex inner character. Some mild chocolatey bitterness that is countered with much fruity sweetness and a light hardwood oiliness. It has a thick full-bodied tea soup and long-lasting huigan (uniquely excellent). This is a tea that benefits from long steeps and won't get funky. Alternatively you can consider brewing this tea in one of the SAMA flasks (either the MC09 or the MC05 ), using 6 or 7 grams and doing a 30-60 minute steep. BZZZZ!!! Affordable aged ripes of this quality are hard to come by! Give it a try! Spend $240 or more and get a 250 Gram brick of 2004 Menghai Bamboo Leaf Ripe Pu-erh Tea Brick FREE!
