Shu Puerh
Shu puerh tea from Bulang mountain processed back in 2011 blended with the Pasha 2017. Very interesting concept of medium fermented Bulang shu puerh with dark-ish Pasha. Intensive dark chocolate notes accompanying flavor of nuts which you will "chew" after 2nd or 4rd infusion. Only 30% of lao cha is enough to give the tea well balanced taste and reasonable price same time. Excellent daily drinker!

Daily drinker
This is a real "cheapskate" cake at $14 for 200g.
Yet, it is (imho) the 2nd best shu I have tasted so far. It will probably drop to #3 or 4 later, as I taste more, but for the price it is incredible!
Combined with price, this curretly tops my list for "daily drinker", probably to be paired with a TieGuanYin as the other daily drinker, for variety.
The taste stands out in creaminess. More creamy by a good margin than other shus I have tasted. As good as no sourness. The minus is the lack of long aftertaste. But for a daily drinker to be ingested while for instance working, that is perfect.
Brew notes: I brewed this at 95˚, 5g for 120ml, short infusions of 10s-15s-20s ... and then increased to 100˚. It remained consistent in taste throughout.
