Total: 20/30 : Aroma: 6/10, Flavor: 3/5, Value: 5/5, Overall: 6/10
Aroma dusty but clean. Smooth flavor. Not quite as full-bodied as some pu-erhs, and not as much complexity in the earthy aroma, but this is really not bad. Pu-erhs can be hard to find in teabags and teabag pu-erhs can be pretty terrible so I think Ten Ren deserves some commendation for this one.
