Starting a pot of 2000 Long Yuan Hao and enjoying a new addition thanks to goober.
Solid little cups aren't they? I think the capacity is good for either puerh or oolong. Enjoy!

Ok, so for cakes a tong = a sample. What about tuos ?
menghai 7532 one my favs do you have the 07 I wonder how they compare.
I ordered a bing of 2008 Menghai "Da Yi Hong Premium Ripe" with the 7532. I may try giving that a run tomorrow. Any recommendations for procedural differences?
Some Xiauguan Jia Ji tuo of indeterminate age for me, and some 2007 Muyechun 002 for the birthday girl.
It's all over- I officially have a teenager now.
Happy birthday to her
I do not have any other year...which is a shame. Though I do intend to procure some. Undoubtedly Netsurfr has tried both!
The difference between the 07 and 08 7532 is somewhat subtle in the early infusions but becomes more pronounced in later infusions. The most notable difference is the astringency level. Generally, the other aspects of the tea remain the same. All in all -- a winner no matter the year.
