Gong ting shu puerh in tangerine needs 2 - 3 long infusions to make the fruit skin soften up and tea leafs start to release some decent liquid. Slow pouring into the small opening will increase efficiency of brewing and for last infusions also can cut skin by small scissors to get most of the shu inside. Typical citrusy taste shu puerh for winter evenings...
Menghai blend of 3rd grade which is reflected in taste as the deep of fermentation. That can cause very deep black tea soup if you brew it hard. If you are a fan of older shu , this one can be your optimal choice as the price is not that high despite the age because the grade neither. Dark chocolate from fermentation , wood from age and very slight smoke...

It's that natural caramel-ish sweet nuo mi touch you get from deep fermented shu which you...

The aged skin also have more subtle taste which doesn't release sharp...
