Yunnan Sourcing Brand Raw Pu-erh Tea "B-Sides" Sampler- Part 3

Very good stuff

It was very nice to return to these teas after 10 years. The most positive surprise was the Shang Chun, which I distinctly remember disliking when it was young, but it's transformed very nicely and it's cool to see how the tobacco smokiness transformed into a pleasant tea. Guafengzhai is of course excellent (probably the best tea of the bunch). Ban Po is another tea I didn't like too much when it was young, but it became pleasant. Jinggu is a good Jinggu, meaning it's a pretty good puerh, but the taste spectrum is not something I'd be in love with. The Youle... it's my favourite region, so I may have had a bit too high hopes, and there are some aspects in the taste spectrum I don't enjoy so much, but still, it's a fine tea. Overall, heartily recommended, this is a good set.
