Ancient tea trees (gushu) at 1700–1900 m altitude, unique microclimate with mist and clean air — that's what gives Lao Banzhang its signature powerful, deep flavour that collectors have chased for decades.
Walked into a regular supermarket in China — and boom, entire shelf full of Pu'er
Prices from 20 to 660 yuan per cake — some budget, some pretty collectible.
Pu'er is literally everywhere here, and it actually tastes amazing.

today i drank my first possible laobanzhang, from 2005. at a very low ratio (i used 2.6g) it still proved very interesting, with a pleasant bitterness that quickly transformed into sweetness, reasonable longevity, interesting notes and a light hint of plum at the very end. #teasky #puerh

TSH date fragrance ripe brick
huangpian shou. tastes like it. probably skip unless you havent had a huangpian shou before. sweet thick etc but unengaging and without much body and depth. would make for a great daily drinker because these things dont matter for that context

From the high, mist-covered mountains of Kokang, Myanmar, this raw (sheng) Pu-erh captures both the wild energy of ancient tea trees and the subtle grace of its unique terroir. Bordering Yunnan Province, the Kokang region shares the same Camellia sinensis var. assamica cultivar found in famous Chinese Pu-erhs, yet the teas here develop their own personality: delicate, floral, and fruit-kissed, with a soft vibrancy that lingers on the palate. Pressed in Spring 2017 from old-tree leaves, this tea has rested into a beautifully balanced cup: a deep orange liquor with aromas of wildflowers, honeyed fruit, and fresh mountain air. Each sip reveals layers of floral sweetness and gentle bitterness, refined, never overpowering, offering both immediate enjoyment and the potential for further aging and transformation. A tea for those who appreciate the living, evolving art of Pu-erh. Form: 357g compressed cake Tasting Notes Aroma: Orchid, honeyed fruit, sun-warmed stone Taste: Floral, bright, and gently mineral with soft, lingering energy Liquor: Deep orange-gold Finish: Clean, vibrant, and evolving with each steep

Good afternoon, friends. I just uploaded a video where I share my opinion on a tea that I think is quite good. Feel free to check it out:

🍃 🌱 🍵 🫖
Loose leaf pu-erh and pu-erh tou cha. Notice the different in the color of the liquor. Loose leaf is more delicate and nuinaces and the tou cha is more bold and earthier. #gongfucha #cha #tea #agedtea #darktea #puerh #teaeducation #teasky
Longues feuilles de thé présentées dans une coupelle de présentation à gauche et dans le gaiwan à droite. Une feuille simple est posée en bas, avec une cuillère à café (sacrilège ! 😆 ) pour donner l'échelle.
Ok ça c'est un thé qui a besoin de place pour s'exprimer... 😄

Dark tea for the dark of the year, 2004 Menghai Tuocha, notes of agarwood & a bitter hint that slides into sweet, velvety broth, delightful all around.

Pu’erh is a tea of transformation 🍵 Each steep changes, just as we do. What changes has tea guided you through? #CupOfTea #PDXDrinksTea #Puerh #TeaMagic

Also tried EoT's 03 Jingmai and their 04 Xiang Yun Hao the other day. Both were quite strange, with the Jingmai being discordant and having a distinct menthol cooling effect and the XYH having a very thick brothy texture and a grain note. Need more sessions to dial in

teaswelike 12 cent brick. nice dry storage sheng, clean, sweet, floral, smokey, just a plain delight that can't be argued with for the price. i should get more of them.
