Ah yes, now I remember Lew speaking of it. I am not familiar with this
one. I am somewhat surprised to see the recent availability of so
many aged loose leaf sheng puerhs that just a year ago were seldom
seen. I am drinking one right now from another source. I am told by
those in the know that the loose leaf aged puerhs don't demonstrate
nearly as much "Qi" as the compressed variety, but they can be tasty.
