5 Tasting Notes View all

“Using up the last of this, today. I don’t know why I love drinking something that tastes like the demolition site of pre-war construction, but I do. I love it.” Read full tasting note
“Ce que j’aime de ce Puerh c’est qu’on sent qu’il est encore “on the edge” de maturer, il est encore vert et en train de tourner vers le terrestre. Vraiment une belle découverte!” Read full tasting note

Description

This Sheng (raw) Pu Er has a vegetal character still present despite nearly 15 years of aging in Asia. Its generous leaves release notes of leather and fresh peat, a fruity note of ripe ground cherry and a slightly bitter vegetal note, reminiscent of the skin of cucumber, tickle the palate. Offering a nice complexity and an evolution of aromas over reinfusions, this vintage will delight fans of Sheng Pu Er.
