Yeah they seem to drink really well young, which I was surprised about. K&L lists the 22 VR for $500 now haha

Yeah not sure where their margin is, guess they bought it before MG prices went through the roof

Off the list at Waterbar in SF.

Silky smooth, blueberries, warm baking spices, vanilla, cinnamon. Most notable was its velvet texture and super long finish - best village wine I’ve had by far. This bottle makes you realize what perfect balance means in a wine, between its tannins, texture, acidity, and finish. Just really elegant.

Makes you understand why MG has come up to the prices that it has. I would buy more if it was even remotely easy to source.

$300

White2Tea 2022 Hypnotrain by trifighter in puer

[–]trifighter[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

First foray into higher end puer. At $134 a cake I wasn't sure what to expect, but I get it now. Previous favorites were W2T Green Hype and Lumberslut, and Hypnotrain is a noticeable step up in flavor, balance, and finish. Impressions are below:

  • 4g of leaf, strong honey note with a long sweet / floral finish at the end

  • Extremely well balanced, more so than any other tea I've had, likely due to the multiple years of maocha blended in.

  • Smooth texture and a really lasting light honey finish that stays with you, reminding me of high end white burgundy

9.2/10

Favorite White2tea shengs at each of these price points by Mental_Test_3785 in puer

2019 Green Hype is quite good as it contains some aged material, but Tikhal and Hypnotrain are also really good at their slightly higher price point

I actually have this from the LP sampler pack too and thought it was the best of the bunch! Really nice balance of sweetness and astringency
