5.0 out of 5 stars Classic 7542 with quick delivery?! Couldn't ask for much more...
Reviewed in the United States on February 20, 2021
Pretty straight forward. 150g of 7542 for $25 is never a bad deal. Delicious smokey and malty flavor that mellows out into a more chestnutty cream flavor with hints of vanilla later on. Its a young sheng, so you are getting what you order. Probably benefit from decent storage for another year or so (good humidity and heat, no odors etc) but for long term aging Id probably go for the regular 357g cakes. Still, in a pinch this seems to be an excellent deal.

Also, Ive seen reviews for similar products noting that this tastes incomplete a not like puer that they are use to. There are 2 types of puer, raw(sheng) and cooked/ripe (shou). This is a sheng, and a young sheng at that, which typically people age for a while before drinking. That is a matter of preference, and a lot of people like myself enjoy drinking them young as well. Ripes are good to go right out of the package, though aging can help. If you dont think this tastes like what your familiar with, it is probably because you are use to aged shengs or ripes, and you may opt for a ripe dayi like a 7572. These young shengs will taste bitter and smokey, with a bit of tobacco flavor. They will sweeten and become more malty and complex with age.

Very flavorful warm grape and plum undertones with main puerh flavour and an astringent zing aftertaste.

Smells very distinctly of strong raw puerh.
