2019 Chaze Bai Fu 'Hundred Blessings' Ripe Pu Erh Cake 357g

Soft tea, very interesting profile , not a strong earthiness.

Great!!

This tea has a delightful aroma that lingers through the nose and a subtle sweetness that is very pleasant. I enjoy drinking it as a post-meal tea.

A bit messy but quite good, if...

Although it sounds promising, and the fact that it is from a smaller branch of the Menghai tea manufactury heightened my expectations, it is not from high quality. The taste is quite well, a bit smoky and earthy, what I like, but from the first brewing a lot of junk is noticable and almost disturbing the harmony of the tea. This could be very good, if harvested and selected with more care, leaving out all those branches, overmatured leafparts or leafestalks. It would be maybe ok for half of the price, then this all would be about to expected. Nevertheless, it is OK and I absolutely love drinking Pu Erh so I will honor this by drinking it, which means removing all the items swimming in top carefully and adding a bit more fresh tea after every 3-4 brewings, but that may be my style only 🙏!
