I think Wu De, being magnanimous as GTH website claimed him to be, will give @StoneLadle a big discount. No need to change pseudonym.

Re: Nixing, Jianshui, etc
Hahaha...that video clip is hilarious.
This is definitely a male-dominated forum We need more women and less testosterone. Since @StoneLadle join this forum, I feel like the testosterone level in this forum has been raised by 10 fold

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
2020 Spring Jingmai Miyun Overall, I really enjoyed this tea. It tastes really nice as a young tea. It has a lot of high notes (mostly dry fruit) and enough bitterness to round it out, giving it body and decent mouthfeel. Huigan is good, but not exceptional. Cha qi is fine. My wife and I dont notic...

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
The boss says unlikely... http://www.marshaln.com/2017/04/life-and-death-of-a-tree/ So if this is true, then single tree puer is just a marketing gimmick and I should not trust Hojo or anyone who sell single tree puer? Do many people share this view or only a few? I now feel like a fool for buying ...

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
It was labeled as Ming Feng Shan. Does anyone know where Ming Feng Shan is located? Hojo sells single tea trees but I don't think they are from famous area...otherwise, the price would have been astronomical. There's a 鸣凤山 in or close to Lincang (Yongde). That's the only one I could find in Yunnan ...

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
I had the 2019 single tree loose raw puerh from Hojo today. Haven't had a young Sheng for a long time. It was really good...very aromatic with strong warming energetic Qi. The only thing is I don't know where this tea is from. It was labeled as Ming Feng Shan. Does anyone know where Ming Feng Shan i...

vuanguyen Tai He is actually my favorite among Wistaria tea, but I much prefer the 2005 version. Did you get a chance to sample the same tea from the different year? I just had Wistaria's Hotien Houtuo for the first time. It's supposed to be a sheng from the 70s. The liquor tasted very smooth, and ...

vuanguyen that tea colour looks good from those big leaves... Interesting how the ticket is on the back of the cake... That cake looks like it's been in some decent storage. I'm drinking a 2000 CNNP Lam Yin tribute cake, HKG stored, high compression, unsweetened root beer syrup... The dustiness is ...

Can autumn harvest tea be this expensive?
Denong tea shop just sent me an email in regard to their newly released "LIMITED RELEASE 2016 BULANG GOLDEN AUTUMN HARVEST RAW PU-ERH TEA". The harvest is in autumn but the price is $4.50 per gram. I know Bulang mountain has the famous Laobanzhang village. I also know Bulang mountain has good teas s...

Re: Aging puerh: what is your setup?
The part that isn't being fleshed out is how moisture content level, the relative humidity, is a big factor in when mold will grow. If the teas were being held at 80% RH they probably would mold; conventional wisdom is that 70% makes for an upper limit, but they typically won't at that level. Shift...

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
I like the cake too but for a different reason. It it the sweetest puerh tea I've ever tasted. More so than any other Yiwu teas from Wistaria or YQH. However, it has the most smoke in all my puerh cakes. I can still smell and taste the smoke at my last (9th) infusion. The Qi was not that strong for...

As a big fan of both Bulang teas and Malaysian storage, I've been drooling over that cake for quite some time... 6hrs later, and I'm still vibrating from this one.

Re: What Pu'er Are You Drinking
Any resources to learn about fake Puerh? I have been interested in learning more for the last year or two. So far the online contents are more about fake aged tea that can sell for $$$$, but not much about counterfeit teas within the last 10-20 years. Thanks :) not that I am aware of... not many wi...
