The batch of this tea goes without a cover, so we don’t call it Hong Tai Chang, although the sheng was made at one of the very old factories in Thailand, which has been working under the Hong Tai Chang brand for a long time.

In general, the taste of this pu-erh is similar to those of 1988 cake. However, there is a difference. In this tea, there is a little less maturity and, as a result, more sweetness.

Sheng puer of old school for true connoisseurs. This tea really fascinated us with its sweetness. Despite the venerable age, it has a plentiful palette of tastes. A well-readable mix of dried apricots and dates on the tangible smooth background of sweet teak wood and hazelnuts. Smooth and rounded tea with the aroma of oldness, of long but delicate storage in the tropics. Definitely worth a try.

It is clear this is aged Thai puer right from the rinse-
it has that strong trademark aroma of prunes that is shared with all other HTC-type Thai puers, alongside leathery aged notes..

I find this tea to be a bit of a conundrum, as it has a strong sweet taste, strong aged aromas, strong mouthfeel, strong qi, but somehow it left me the impression of being subtle..

Definitely a tea to try out!
