7 Color Flower Sheng Pu'er Bing (七彩花生普饼, Qī Cǎi Huā Shēng Bǐng, "Seven Colors Sheng Pu'er Bing") - This stunning tea cake is a visual masterpiece. Edible flowers including rose, chrysanthemum, and violet form a bright palette on a carpet of muted green Nannuo Mountain sheng pu'er leaves.
In addition to being beautiful and contributing fragrance and flavor, these three flowers are also used extensively in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). The bouquet of sweet floral notes dances with the vegetal minerality of fresh sheng. A beautiful, drinkable piece of art that makes a great gift, both to serve and to share.

Just what it says on the tin!
I apparently cannot read but now that I know that it is indeed that bitter almost smoky taste on purpose I can appreciate it more! Good for people who know what they are after ;)
