I gave up on sleep at 6:50 am, got up, started installing multiple programmes on the computer, and made a pot of this tea for the first time ever (my first pu-erh too) Obviously it’s going to be one of those days.
I have no idea what I think of it. Earthy and sort of musty tasting but somehow not unpleasantly so; it tastes – and this is gonna get weird – you know in The Magicians Nephew by C. S. Lewis, the wood between the worlds? If you put some of the mud from that place in a teapot and brewed it I think it would taste like this.
I can’t even tell if I like it or not.

I like the C.S Lewis analogy! I can totally see what you mean with pu-ehrs tasting a bit like that. Maybe not mud for me, but it’s close enough.

My evil twin declared that it tastes like sphagnum moss that’s almost peat… I’ve decided not to ask how she knows what that tastes like.
