I was in Switzerland to see an old friend and she told me that while travelling in Asia for work, she had been given a Pu-Erh but she has no info on it (when, what,… how long should it mature?).
Here is a link to pictures I made (https://picasaweb.google.com/115821121098456862741/PuErh?authuser=0&authkey=Gv1sRgCID96NqKlM-11AE&feat=directlink).
I told her that you were the best of the best. ,)

Ha ha, we may be the best of the best but nobody aside from @gingkoseto speaks any Chinese language. Wait, @tea-author does. Warren, are you able to shed any light on this Pu’er?

Here is @tea-author ‘s translation and his comments.
The yellow label says:
Chen Zhuang Registered Trademark
Yunnan Province Famous Brand
Puerh Tea
500 Grams
Kunming Tian Pin Tea Limited Liability Co.Inner booklet:
Yunnan Chen Zhuang Puerh Tea
Puerh Brick Tea
Shou Tea (checked) /Sheng TeaBack:
Product Name: Zhuang Chen Brand Book-Shaped Puerh Tea
Ingredients: Quality Large-leaf Variety Tea
Net Weight: 500 Grams
Quality Grade: Special Grade
Product Standard Code: GB/T22111 (a code for puerh tea)
Food Safety Inspection Certificate Number: QS5300 ******
Shelf Life: Suitable for long-term storage.
Storage Method: Keep away from dampness, odors, store in unpolluted environment.
Address: Zhongpiying, Longquan Town, Kunming, Yunnan province
Tian Pin Tea Brand Store
Address: Kunming, Kangle Tea Shopping Center
Production Date: March 1, 2010So basically, it’s a shu brick tea puerh, of 500g, from a regionally branded tea company based in Kunming. Where the material comes from – the packaging doesn’t say.
They list their brand store in a tea market – seems like it’s a small company.

@xavier It’s one of those fully-cooked puerhs, not the raw (sheng) kind, so your friend could drink it anytime. Aging it is not going to make any difference.
