So, this is amazing pu’erh according to everyone . I’m just not sure if pu’erh is for me. I just taste…earthiness. I’m near the beginning of infusions, but… Also, I guess I wasn’t careful enough with the leaves because I’m getting dust from them in all my infusions. I definitely don’t love this, which… I suppose if this continues, it will at least save me a lot of money on pu’erh.

I have been afraid to start trying to enter the Pu’erh scene myself, as i find i am quite picky with what i like, which is apparently Yunnan black. I think i will take my time on them lol.

I bought this in a 1 oz. bag and the pu’erh sampler from Verdant, so I haven’t really invested a lot in it yet. But yeah… I don’t know. I feel like maybe I’m not doing something right, or maybe I’m missing something important? I don’t know — I’m just not getting what other people seem to get from it.

I drink black and oolong teas — and am trying to learn a little about puerh these days. I’m in it for the taste, not the appropriated Eastern mysticism. Not so good at keeping my cupboard up to date, let alone making a tea spreadsheet. I don’t really do sipdown reviews because then I’d be judging the tea based on the dust at the bottom of the bag. I think it’s nifty that there are tens of thousands of options involving just this one plant leaf.
