2001 Aromatic Bamboo Raw Pu-erh Tea of Menghai

Unique puer. Unusual flavour and aroma profile. I have never encountered anything like this before. The aroma is either juniper or eucalyptus, or spruce, with a slight hint of citrus. This must be the aroma of Yunnan bamboo. The taste and aroma are not like smoke, but something baked or something I cannot properly explain. In the last brews, a strong sweetness of rock sugar appears and all this is mixed with the distant taste of citrus, this eucalyptus-juniper taste, and, of course, good pu-erh. Very impressive!

Well

From what I experienced it is a lot of small pieces of leaf. I only tried it once I wasn’t very impressed maybe I should give it a second chance but at this time I did not really enjoy it that much It’s pretty cool how it comes in the bamboo stick and you have to break it open to get the tea. Other than that I’m not super impressed with the tea
