2024 Cacao 80
Type of tea: Ripe Puer
Brewing method: 6oz in gaiwan, boiling water
Another one of the ripe puers I'm trying to supplement my dwindling supply of aged w2t with, which has an amazingly smooth chocolate brownie batter mouthfeel. This one has an interesting frog pee pong on top of the typical ripe puer forest floor smell, and has a really powerful bitterness that is more like a really luxe piece of dark chocolate than brownies. It's a bit harsh but smooths out in later steeps.
