The Tea Guru
DESCRIPTION

The 7542 Raw Puerh cake is arguably the most legendary, collectible and faked recipe released by Dayi. This recipe is widely sought by investors and is generally seen as a very reliable cake to age well. The cakes having rested in Guangdong since 2011 in dry storage were purchased via an official Dayi dealer in Guangdong. The Guangdong storage has turned the leaf a dull brown and pushed the leaf well down the track of aging. Bitterness is still apparent but somewhat muted. The broth is a turning orange. The taste is deep with sweetness setting in. Later steeps will offer more fruity/nectar aroma and flavour with fruity aftertaste! An energetic Chi is starting to make an appearance also. The texture is now very noticeably smoother to earlier years. Texture, sweetness and chi will build in later years!
