Week of Pu Monday... 08 Red Army Banmu cake, and 2003 Longfeng brick

2003 Longfeng Sheng Brick
Over the sessions the tobacco smell faded away, while more citrus and berry smells emerged in the nose.
The initial tastes had very little tobacco it was more of a zesty orange, but the tobacco taste grew the longer it remained in your mouth...
The finish was often citrusy with a slight sweetness.

I brewed this Boiling for 10,10, 15, 20, 30, 40, 50 seconds each.










08 Red Army Banmu Pu-erh

I brewed this Boiling for 10,15,20, 30, 40, 50, 60 seconds each successive steeping.

This tea had very little tobacco taste, and tasted and smelled of banana's with hints of cranberries and walnuts . With a very smooth finish that lingered for a long time.


Both of these can be found at puerh shop. The last picture is of the 08 Red Army sample cake, the rest are of the 2003 longfeng brick.
