Stinky tofu is much milder in flavor than aroma. At least the stuff I tried in both Yunnan and Taiwan was, Hunan may have a different kind.
I found it incredibly tasty, like a mild gorgonzola. Fried or boiled in soup are both amazing.
In Taiwan it’s super convenient because as soon as you get punched in the nose by the aroma of hot, unwashed crotch you can follow that scent and you’ll almost always reach an amazing night market with a range of delicious food and other vendors.

Can confirm, while Hunan stinky tofu is stinky, it doesn’t taste “stinky”.
