Another winner. This ripe has aged incr edibly well with a rich, big mouthfeel and dark, long-lasting tea. You will be drinking this one all day. It starts out as a very delicious ripe, but quickly transforms into something more akin to a well-aged sheng with deep earthy and aromatic woody notes. Normally this is as good as it gets with a ripe tea, but the 2001 CNNP (if it's still around) still takes the cake (餅).
