Try well kept 20+ years raw Pu (must be raw, you got con if its ripe 20year old Pu). Loses fragrance because some idiots keep one beng for 20 years and think they strike it rich already, proper way to keep is keeping it with lots and lots of other Pu. One day I go to my friend's warehouse again I take a photo to show you what I mean. Its like wine. Must be kept well and correctly, bro.

Old tree raw Pu still hard to drink if still young. For raw Pu, I think the minimum you have to keep is still 8 years (maybe 6 if kept here). Sorry I don't drink ripe Pu.

Oo Long is way different. Drink it while it is fresh. Once open its a rush to finish it. Oh ya I drink raw Oo Long not the ripe ones. I like the green colour, raw young Pu is also greenish. Actually young Pu is very hard to drink. Need time to mellow out the taste and for it to show its true character. As it ages the colour darkens and after more than 10years it starts to look like the ripe Pu colour.

The ripening process is artificial. You never get the true taste and character of the Pu. But then due to the high demand that is the only way to produce enough for the masses. Hence the high price of raw aged Pu.

Go try you will like it.

Advise: don't go to shops to try old Pu. Try from collectors. You get better Pu. Shops they have to make money so they will sell anything (from personal experience)

The key is networking.
