This is the 2021 pressing, a sheng now carrying a few years of age, compressed into a practical 250 g brick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWith around five years behind it, the early sharpness of a fresh sheng has eased, leaving a rounder, more settled cup that is still clearly raw in character. [Confirm tasting notes — a maturing Lao Tong Zhi sheng typically shows florals and honey deepening in sweetness, with a light bitterness turning to a returning sweetness (huigan) and a cooling finish.]\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe liquor is bright golden, clear and well structured, smooth on the palate with a cooling sweetness in the throat. Across infusions the astringency eases and the aromatics deepen, and the brick steeps generously through many rounds, rewarding a patient session. A brick is also easy to break and convenient to store.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eA well-priced, brand-name sheng that drinks well now and keeps real aging potential. A good choice whether you want to enjoy a gently maturing raw pu-erh today or lay down a brick to follow as it ages over the years.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lucy Wang","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":63798390915449,"sku":"LW-Sheng-03","price":34.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0981\/3616\/2681\/files\/lao-tong-zhi-sheng-pu-erh-brick-2021-250g.png?v=1781820548","url":"https:\/\/teacha.store\/en\/products\/lao-tong-zhi-sheng-pu-erh-brick-2021-250g","provider":"TeaCha","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
