2012 Thai-Menghai Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake
This is one more ripe pu-erh of Thai-Yunnan lineage (take a look at its elder brother of 2006). Thai ancient tea trees material (200-700-year-old trees) was fermented and pressed in Yunnan (Menghai). Then brought back to Thailand for storage which, actually, can be not less good here than in Malaysia.
This Shou (Ripe) Pu-erh tea has fruity-nutty tones in its taste. Thick and dense infusion.

definitely a step up from factory ripes-
the taste is strong and defined,
the mouthfeel is thick,
and it steeps much linger than a regular ripe.
but as the price indicates, you can't expect to get here the top ripes from Tea-Side..
there really is a difference.
Still, definitely worth the asking price!
