My plan is to keep this piece as a sample for track change (aging) over the years. I will try to take picture once every 1 or 2 years to see the changes. In order to have accurate color, I am keeping the technical data here as well.

Body: Sony DSLR-A900
Lens: 24-70mm F2.8 ZA SSM @ 70mm
ISO: 100
Aperture: 8
Shutter: 1/15 for cover shots, 1/4 for inside shots
Color Temp: 5000K for cover shot, 5300k inside shots
Color Profile: Adobe RGB (1998)

This is not the 2011 tea, but from the first order in 2009. I am taking a new picture to track the change of the tea.

The original picture taken in May 2009.



The attached were the new pictures taken today 8-Jun-2011. This sample was stored in the office, so the year-round temp & humidity change is very limited. The lack of clear seasonal change is NOT good for the aging of puer tea. Judging from the color, there isn't really much change (aging) in the last two years.

More technical data for my own record for future comparison...

The above pictures taken on 8-Jun-2011 was taken with the following lighting
- one daylight light box on top left
- ambient, slight warm, fixture light in the office dining room
- windows not covered, but it was evening, so no sun light through the tinted glass curtain of the office tower.

The result seems a bit to warm...

Yes, they look nicer than older puer teas. I just hope they will eventually taste as good.

I have ordered a few extras for our friends here. Drop me a note if you are interested to try. I can give you one from each 山寨. Although you (and me) may not be able to tell the difference.  ;D  ::)

If you don't know what to try, start with the 鄭家樑子.

Yes I know. If you want to try others, just let me know.

Although I think many of them not ready for immediate drinking. They should taste a lot better, with more substance after a few more months. Hopefully will age to much more complex taste in 10 years.

The last to arrive is the 麻黑 and the special "Nuts" version.
