Last bit of this sample from Dexter, and it feels like it will never end. 2 rinses, and then 4 steeps into a thermos to take with me today.
It’s strong, it’s a bit “fishy” and really earthy/forest loamy. I do like it, but it’s not excellent.
It feels like it’s not going to steep out though. I have a feeling I’ll be steeping it a bazillion times when I get home.
Thanks so much, Dexter! :)
Steeping this more the next day. It’s almost spicy. 3 steeps fit into a thermos, and honestly since I’m not really worried about “wasting” this tea by not checking out each steep, this is the easiest and best way to do it. It’s still a bit musty, but it’s getting almost creamy, and has a bit of a peppery bite. I flash-rinsed it twice before brewing since it was out on the counter overnight.
…the only downside to puerh when you’re trying to get your cupboard under control hahahaha
Omg I know. I didn’t actually make more last night so I’ll be filling a thermos again today for when I go out.
Steeping more today!
