You know what? Since I saw how much you love that tea, how much it means to you and how hard it is to let it go, I gonna delete the mail with the code, pretending to never have seen it. I'm convinced that I would not be able to appreciate the whole experience as much as you do.
This was a treat to listen to despite the tragedy of finding this video 7 months too late! I’m very new to Pu’er in general so it gets my excited about what the height of luxurious tea might taste like. Thank you for sharing the video!
I watched this earlier today and was so excited to try and get some of this tea. Now it's sold out. 😭 You guys who got it better tell us how good it is and enjoy it to the fullest.
Omg, thank you so much for sharing this tea. I just got my sample and am blown away. Strongest body experiance I have ever gotten on a ripe, insaaaaane aeromatics the whole way through into the deep steeps. Mouth feel, taste, all through the roof. Worth the price! Thank you ❤
The tea zen feeling is probably because of the tannins and GABA elements found in tea, which are strengthened with age. It can certainly be very calming and qi-full
I sincerely hope everyone who got some of this savors the experience. Personally, I have NEVER enjoyed heavily aged puerhs. Not a single one I have tried was to my taste, including one I purchased from ML (Liu Bao 1988). To my nose and palate, they are all redolent of the antiquities wing of a museum: way too much resin and dust. A friend said they reminded her of old straw. But that is MY taste, and I have no regrets trying them; doing so helped me focus on what I do like. For fans: bon appetit!!!
Somehow the history of factory puer is really interesting to me. When people talk about tea history they usually talk about ancient Asian aristocrats and trade along the Silk Road and I get it, it does sound more romantic, but the more recent history is also fascinating.
Hi Don - out of curiosity, why is that old bing wrapped so tightly with plastic. Aging sheng or even shou pu-erh I thought is supposed to be allowed to breathe because it is still aging - even @ 50 years. From the sound of you unwrapping the plastic, it sounds brittle w/ age.
Nice one! I hope you will do this with a very old sheng too! I wonder if they had not processed it into a ripe back in the day if it would have turned out better being left as sheng. I think so because shou is basically old sheng imitation/wannabe as far as I understand it.
Ooh I’m drooling over this tea(not literally)! I have a beautiful Yixing teapot from the 1970’s,the teapot would marry well with this tea. I bring it to London whenever I go,and will be there in late September. Any chance on holding on to a pinch,so that I can try it over at your shop(which I have been to)?
You had to be subscribed to their newsletter and also have the post fermented tea medal by buying ripe puerh/fermented tea as part of the membership on the website. I have that medal and I received a code in my email, but I decided against getting some because I would not be able to appreciate it to the fullest at this point in my tea journey. That and it is too rich for my blood

This is so funny, I've really grown to love your channel
For what it's worth, I liked the ray of light. It was interesting (in a good way) visually, and the poetry of it was simply great.
it seems the tea took on an extra toasty character near the end guys, elevated is a great way to put it ;) great to watch - one day i'd love a sip
Don & Celine, the light came in to help you show us the brilliant red colour of the tea. Next time it happens you can hold the tea in the light!!🤩🤩
Happy for you both, whilst drinking my Amber Mountain. It sounds like a tea to be shared with your discerning customers. Lol

"A promise is a promise" right on, sir
Timestamp 24:22 The colour reminds me of Vintage Port.

a really beautiful colour!!
DICOUNT CODE? I don't see one in the email that went out for this video. How to get it?
Watching this video at work while indulging in B.A.D while waiting for P.B.S to arrive in a few days 😀
Is it still possible to somehow get the discount code? I wasn't yet subscribed to your newsletter.
Keep up the vids 👍👍
May I ask, is there any meaning of your red bracelet ? We can see it quite a lot in your videos and I'm curious.
Is it too late to get a discount code?
Lol had a friend who bought the little yellow cake ccnp he did it as a joke while he was in school in the 70s he is a nuclear engineer
Also the wrap on the stuff he had from the 70s was very loose weave and very course cloth not paper
What was the name and will it come again
Flipped Green and it will be coming back shortly

#puerhpolice =D
😆
It's sold out! Why's this keep getting made into new shorts? You just like teasing us with what we can't have?
Brutal.. well your a man of your word. You run a good company. Can tell how you lured such a lovely woman in your life. 🤘😍
How the fuck did I get here
Same haha. Watching tea content and I don’t drink tea, from my bedroom in Melbourne Australia 😂😂😂😂
Dear Don, te code you sent by email seems to not work as intended. The stated price on the email, is not the price it gets discounted to.
Indeed, about 1800 EUR for me
i noticed that too. :(
>$3,000 for me. :(
Same
Same here. Got up at 5am in the U.S. to get it
Too bad you can’t call it your wedding anniversary tea that you need to covet and keep to yourself.
