Sunny Shu is smooth, creamy, sweet and lingering. It has what one customer described as a present minerality. Just the kind of shu you want to spend an afternoon at the beach with.
I tend to gravitate toward dark, inky, chocolaty shu so it's nice to have the contrast of Sunny. Don't let the lightness of this tea fool you into thinking it's simple. It's quite complex and the flavor builds over multiple steeps. This Lancang shu was pressed in 2018
*One note of clarity: There was a miss wrapping of teas in my Shu Pu All Stars. The one called Bernard is actually Sunny and the one titled Sunny is a different tea. Sorry about that!

Shu puer is always very hit or miss for me and this one is an absolute hit. No aged funk or off flavors and very clear liquid with no cloudiness and a beautiful deep ruby color. A lot of natural sweetness and a very mouth coating full bodied texture. I get hints of chocolate, caramel, and baked goods in the flavor. This is well worth the price and I will be buying a lot more soon.
Wonderful taste, just like it's name this tea tastes super bright and clear for a shu puer. Brewed it gongfu style (3.5 oz gaiwan), so I used only half the ball and it still gave me a good 9 steeps (made nearly a quart!) before the flavor started to drop.
