I can't speak for the Jing Mai Ye Sheng cake, but I have the
Bajiaoting, Dai Ethnic Minority, and Yiwu Zhengshan cake from
Teaspring. I haven't broken open the first two yet, but the Zhengshan
is sweet, smokey, mild and goes down easy. It's a good
won't-scare-anyone-away introduction to puerhs based on all the young
green puerhs I've been sampling lately.

Following on to Dominic's post, Teaspring has some interesting pu-erhs
(http://www.teaspring.com/pu-erh-tea.asp). They even have one claimed
to be
from the '60s! Mike, Lew, Michael, what's your take?

I'm also an egg when it comes to pu, but the experiences I have had
with
low-end cooked were not encouraging. Any of these green pu's look good
to
you? The Jing Mai Ye Sheng sounds good, and the price seems
reasonable.
Too reasonable, perhaps?
