This is a very good Pu’erh. I have tried Pu’erh once before, about 8 years ago, and I was not impressed by the one I found at some local Asian food store and I thought I simply did not like that kind of tea. Although, given the large selection at Tealyra and the quality of what I have bought so far here, I thought I would give Pu’erh another try, and I am glad I did! I enjoy this 5 Years Naked Pu'erh. To the nose, it is earthy, woodsy and floral. It was like smelling the soil in a forest after the rain! To the taste, I found it mild, earthy and woodsy (almost smoky). I am sold: I will introduce more Pu’erh in my tea collection!

I love this stuff, I'm a little new to pu-erh but I have tried several different strains and so far this is my favorite. Far better than the highest quality available at my tea shop and half the price.
I love this tea. It is perfect. I have cut out coffee, sugar in my coffee, flavored creams........best part is I have given up nothing. I look forward to my morning tea now.
Delicious tea, and a great inexpensive tea to drink on a more regular basis. Be careful when drinking it as I definitely got a little tea drunk on this one by accident.

I will start by saying I have not tried many Puerhs, so I don't have many to compare it to, but I was quite pleased with this purchase. The flavor is strong and earthy, but not overwhelming or bitter. The color is lovely and it makes for a great cup of chai.
Lived in China for over 4 years and the Puerh I used to have was amazing. I was mildly disappointed to try this tea as the taste is nothing like the puerh I used to have. The color, leaves, even smell are the same but the taste is disappointing.
