SANRAN Aged Pu-erh Tea, Ripe Puerh Tea Cake, Fermented Chinese Black Tea, 100g/3.53oz

The item received in good condition and taste delicious.

Incredible Flavor. Makes a delicious Puer Latte! Very light, almost a champagne but bursting with fruit Notes!

I recommend this tea based on the following:1. Arrived quickly and packaged well.2. Nicely pressed tea cake.3. Tea has a pleasant yet bold earthy taste; the taste is somewhat woody.4. The smell of the tea cake is similar to the taste. It's fresh and not musty at all.5. The tea has a nice color.6. I have got about six maybe more steeps per serving.The first steep is one minute; adding a minute for each steep.7. Overall, great tea for what you pay for.However, I was little disappointed that:1. The description of the tea indicates aged Puerh Tea but the box was stamped 20202. The description of the tea states organic.No where on the box does the word organic appear in English or Chinese.

Good tea

I bought a Pu her cake from a different seller and it was great, you can tell it was aged and fermented for a while but still very fragrant and flavorful. The tea would almost instantly turn into a red-brown color and it worked for what they say it’s supposed to do, then I finished that cake and tried buying a second one but it was sold out ughhhhh! Then I found this one and that description was pretty similar to the other one so I decided to give it a try, but at the 1st cup of tea I noticed it was completely different than the other one, first of all the leafs or whatever it’s called were like sticks but extremely hardened and in a dry sense and once is in the hot water for 3 minutes passed, the leafs turned green, just like any other tea. There was no scent or change of color in the water, absolutely nothing happened. Then I gave it another tries and the same thing, so I decided to give up. Unfortunately it’s going to the trash as it can’t be returned because dumb me, did not check return policy. DO NOT BUY, it’s not pure, or fermented or aged!

Ok. Wish it’s less expensive.

I should preface that this was my first time trying Pu-erh, and I was pleasantly surprised.When I opened the package, like the American I am, I was put off by the smell. It was like if i went outside and stuck my nose deep in the grass and breathed in.However! Once brewed properly, (thanks to a good google search) the tea has almost no smell, and almost no taste. It does have a mildly sweet aftertaste. I didn't sweeten it with anything, and honestly, this tea doesn't need it.The smell does come back a little when the tea starts to cool, so if you are sensitive to smells like I am, its best to drink it quickly!I love his tea! Its a wonderful, unique experience.

These teas are my favorite. Multiple steeps from 10gms. Great flavor and excellent for your diigestive tract. This particular cake is 11 years old and is made ripe, meaning they ferment it some before caking. Raw they pack it up and let it ferment in the cake form. These teas cost up to $500 a kg which makes this one about $90 kg. Its like wine so taste is personal but I have had other Puuer teas and they tend to be very subtley different. I reccomend this tea and will try again. Perhaps a different year as 2007 there was massive overproduction and reduction in quality. This has been corrected but a 4 or 5 year old RIPE pressed is what I will try next.
