I use an extremely fine screen when dealing with any tea that is either (a) not whole leaf or (b) very broken or dusty.
And yet, this tea still manages to fill my cup with things which then stick in my teeth. I have no clue how they can be small enough to get through the screen and then big enough to be visible along my gums, but there it is.
Also, it clumps into itself very badly and clogs my yixing spout so that I end up with a lot of overly long steeps because it is taking longer to pour the water out of the pot than I actually want the length of the steep to be. This results in “burning out” the leaf in too few a number of overall steeps.
I bought this tea specifically for convenience over picking apart an actual brick of pu-erh and it has been the precise opposite.
I don’t recommend this tea unless you’re going to cold brew it and strain the result through cheese cloth.
Flavors: Decayed Wood, Earth, Loam
The mention of the cheese cloth made me laugh :)
