Description:

Lao Banzhang is the pu-erh that you will pay the most money for and the pu-erh that you find most likely a fake. Is it that good, is it worth it, try it and you make your own opinion. A few people that tried this one said it's the best pu they had.
Now 7 gram samples for trying it - €9

Intense aroma of wet leaves. Surprisingly yellow infusion. The taste is mellow, bolt, sweet after honey with a slight bitterness in the end. The tea has a very long and sweet finish. Hui Gan is very fast and intense. You can feel slight touch of the tea energy even after the first cup. The second cup hits you with full force of cha chi. It is very simulative tea. You can prepare many infusions. I give the highest rating, despite a high price of the sample - 7 grams for €9. It was very nice experience.

Water 95°C - rinse - 20s/5/10/15/20/25/30…

„yun; 韵. Charm, appeal, allure. A difficult term to render into English as it refers to a quality of tea that 'cannot be apprehended by the five senses.' Generally used with hou; 喉 - throat. Hou yun. A pleasant feeling that lingers in the throat after swallowing tea. Distinct from hui-gan. “

„Good quality old tea has a 'matured' fragrance (chen wei). This comes from tea that has been stored well and matured without any adverse effects. (xing wei - a 'fishy' smell that can be detected in old tea that has been stored poorly - should be clearly distinguished from chen wei which is quite different). “
