What is the best value somewhat aged raw pu-erh you've had?

I tend to feel that my enjoyment of semi-aged pu-erh is pretty much just lesser than a young raw of the same price. But I want to give it a chance again, just for some variety. Anything better than Xiaguan tuos at a similar pricepoint maybe?

other thread memes I can think of:

>California boomer's illegal pu-erh cave
>pepsi milk lao banzhang
