i got a sample with recent purchase. im always on look out for not overly expensive sheng with some age.
I wasnt disappointed. it was very nice fruity camphor sheng. florals were present but kinda on the background. Because of Guangdong dry storage the tea mellowed and smoothed. the color is orange. Former tobacco notes i always pick up with mengku sheng really mellowed out and were barely noticeable just because i knew they were there. later steeps picked up some more astringency/bitterness but nothing unpleasant.
Im expecting some in a mail soon ;)
