"The One" is a 200g ripe (shou) pu-erh cake made from 2024 spring harvest tea leaves, compressed in the traditional round cake shape in Menghai, Yunnan Province. Ripe pu-erh goes through an accelerated fermentation process called wo dui, which gives it that deep, dark, earthy character straight away — unlike raw pu-erh, which needs years of aging to mellow out.

What it tastes like

This is a full-bodied pu-erh with rich earthy notes, a juicy mouthfeel, and no harsh edges. The liquor brews up a deep reddish-brown that's thick enough to feel substantial on the tongue. There's a natural sweetness underneath the earthiness — not sugary, more like the warmth of dark roasted grains.

Brewing guide

Western style: Break off about 2g for a 400ml teapot. Use 90-100°C water and steep for 3-5 minutes. You'll get up to 3 infusions.

Gongfu style: Use 4g per 150ml gaiwan or Yixing teapot. A quick rinse with hot water first to wake up the compressed leaves. Then 95-100°C water, 30 seconds for the first 4 infusions, adding 10 seconds from the fifth. Up to 10 infusions.

Try boiling it: After your gongfu session, drop the spent leaves into a pot and boil for 3 minutes. This draws out a different, deeper flavour — thicker and more warming. Worth trying on a cold Hobart evening.

How to break the cake

Use a pu-erh tea pick or a butter knife. Insert it along the edge of the cake and gently pry upward — the compressed layers will flake apart. Take what you need and store the rest. A 200g cake will last quite a while with daily use.

Joanne's tip

If you're someone who drinks pu-erh regularly, a cake like this is good value. At 200g, you're looking at roughly 50 gongfu sessions, and the flavour actually improves as the cake opens up over time. I'd suggest pairing it with a dedicated Yixing clay teapot — using the same pot for ripe pu-erh builds up a seasoning that makes each brew smoother. Available at our Salamanca Tea Bar if you'd like to taste it before buying the full cake.

Came in skeptical, but it's GREAT!
I read all the bad reviews I could on this thing and considered it an acceptable risk considering the price. Assembly was easy and the instructions were fair. Not amazing, but once you handle the edger, the gist is clear. I was skeptical overall that the horsepower and plastic guard weren't going to be enough. I ran it for nearly 45min stopping every 5 or so to check the blade and guard. It stayed tight and I was able to manually turn the blade to make sure it was working right. My front yard and sidewalk have been neglected for a few years. I would sometimes edge it out with the weed Wacker, but couldn't get it as clean as I wanted without breaking a LOT of line. When I was done, I noticed the guard had a lot of soil and grass buildup that I was able to take out easily with my fingers. There were a few times I scraped the sidewalk edge, but the blade is still solid and ready for more! I was surprised at the quality and as you're going over an area, it feels solid and not squirly or out of control. My uses are going to be mostly suburban maintenance on my own yard. If I had more land or something bigger, I would consider something larger. For my yard and purposes, this edger is going to work just fine! Did not notice any issues with the blade getting loose, but stayed aware of it. There is a lock nut that keeps it in place. I imagine over time and switching blades, this is going to lose its locking function, but I already see amazon has replacement blades that come with new lock nuts!

Amazon
Amazon is wonderful. Edger is not good. Just let you know. Black and Decker very good edger. I should have known. It’s worth trying Amazon. They returned it back quickly, money back. So, I bought from Amazon Black and Decker LE760FF, from them. It worked great, like B&D has the experience to build Edgers.

Works great, easy assembly and no issues!
Using the weedeater for edging was too hard, so I purchased this. It works great! It was easy to assemble and easy to use. My lines are perfect, but the size, durability, and power of this gem get the job done, and it's lightweight enough that I can easily maneuver it around the yard. I chose a corded one so I don't have to deal with battery life or charging.

Great Edger for the Price
I’ve had no issues at all with this lawn edger. For the price point and the amount of edging I need to do, it works great. It has plenty of power and gets the job done cleanly. Just make sure you have a long enough extension cord for your yard or projects. Overall, no complaints—solid product and an easy 5 stars from me.
