I have had my cycles with tea but it gets tough surrounded by family that are addicted to coffee! However, your post has gotten me interested in this particular one. Thanks for sharing!

I had been running low on puerh for a while and undecided on whether I'd make the big expense to stock up again. In the intervening time I started drinking some very good cold brew coffees. But now that I have my puerh in the house again, I haven't even touched the coffee once.
Give it a try! If you drink sweetened drinks, start with the cheap amazon one. If you don't use sugar, I'd skip that one and start with just an ounce of one of the aged shengs. That way you'll get the full chi experience and it will taste good without sweetener.

You really are into your tea! Is it juat puerh you drink, or do you drink green tea as well?

Not green, but oolong and black teas like ceylon or assam. I've tried white teas too, but eventually gave up on pretending it tasted like anything.

I bought half a dozen 19 year old sheng cakes in Hong Kong around the year 2010. I drink it so rarely that I have not even finished consuming one cake!!
I must say it is an enjoyable experience to drink this tea. It has an unique taste and is best drank in the company of puerh tea connoisseurs.
Thanks for sharing, @indigoocean.

Wow, how fortunate. You'll have better and better tea as the years go by, so good that you drink it slowly. I go through a cake in about 7 years, so not too bad either.
I love both sharing with a connoisseur and initiating a novice who will someday be a connoisseur!

Hi @indigoocean, Yes, that is true it gets better and better as the years go by. But I have always wondered how long can you keep it? Does it mean it can last even 100 years? Any idea?

They used to consider a puerh only properly aged at 50-100 years at least!
But it depends on how you're storing it. If you're exposing it to a lot of air, especially in a home with any mold, it probably doesn't maintain its flavor, and may also lose it's chi.
They say the flavor stops maturing in a place like San Francisco because the climate is never warm enough. But it will be preserved a long time at its current flavor there if you keep it away from mold exposure.
