2001 Basket Aged Ripe Pu-erh Tea from Yi Wu

Well worth it.

I do admit that I thought long and hard about this purchase. Pu-erh tea has been a favorite of mine for decades. I've gone through many sources looking for the perfect tea. Yunnan is the best source of tea that I have come across. Every purchase has been a wonderful experience. When I was running out of Pu-erh I shopped here first. Sadly, my favorite types have sold out. When I saw the availability of this basket I was game. I thought, it sounds great but should I spend this much on just tea? Turns out this isn't 'just tea'. Drinking it was a great experience. Every morning now has a high point. It's amazingly full flavored with some back taste that is unique and very pleasing. It's worth every penny that I spent on it. A nice thing is the size of the package. It is enough tea to last me for a long time and still be there even after I order my favorite Pu-erh. Thank you very much.

New favorite

Im sure this is a good tea but the batch i got had a very strong tobacco like flavor and aroma i was not fond of. Brewed nicely and alot of flavor just not to my taste.
