2020 Taiji Black Label. Xizihao Daughter Tea calls this a "Banzhang killer", note it comes in "white" and "black" label (when they produce it). "White" is spring and "black" is autumn. In any case, making good progress through my Xizihao Daughter raw puerh samples, tried 'em all, only 4 doses left.

2018 Dragon Cake from Xizihao Daughter Tea. Making good progress tasting through these Xizihao Daughter Tea raw puerh samples. (Luckily, I'm not sure I need to buy new tea, I can mostly just taste samples and clubs for quite a while!)

2022 "Elegance of the Century" raw puerh from Xizihao Daughter Tea. If you're going to call a tea "Elegance of the Century", it better be good. While I'm not always a huge fan of very young sheng, this is a very good young sheng from Xizihao Daughter.

Spring 2012 raw puerh from Qiaotoushan, (National Protected Forest,) 10 years in Xizihao Daughter's (I suspect) very dry Taiwan storage. Flavor-wise, it is a quiet tea; "soft power" is the phrase I often use for raw puerh with this sort of character.

2021 To Be Addicted raw puerh from Xizihao Daughter Tea. "...from unmanaged ancient tea gardens near Laowushan and Heshangsi (monk temple), which are about 2400 m above sea level. It is 100 % spring 2021 gushu material. The tea has a rock sugar-like taste, similar to Bingdao teas and a unique orchid note of Xigui teas." At this point, it doesn't grab me as something I love, but I am not over fond of very young raw puerh, no matter the quality.

2010 Golden Leaf Huang from Xizihao Daughter Tea. Huang (pian) is made from tea leaves that are sorted out during the production process, usually because they are too developed, too large, or for other aesthetic reasons.
Some vendors will posit Huang Pian as a good way to try teas from regions whose teas are expensive.
On the other hand, Huang Pian leaves tend to have different flavor characteristics from the leaves that are chosen to be used for actual raw puerh. They also are distinct in how they can be brewed and how they age.

Xizihao Daughter mostly sells raw puerh, but they also sell ripened puerh and the odd Black tea batch. I don't know much about this 2022 "Wild Black" other than it is from "Unmanaged Gardens" somewhere in Vietnam. It has the fruity character I associate with Yunnan sun dried black tea and good durability/length of flavor. A good zippy morning cup.

Trying another puerh from Xizihao Daughter Tea, 2017 Ginseng Brick Ripened Puerh. Warming, easy drinking ripe puerh with a pleasant huigan (lingering sweet bitterness) and surprisingly zippy head based energy.
