When I returned to León (northern Spain) last year, I needed to return to the wonderful tea shop “La tienda del té” there as well. Apart from the pu erh caramelo belga I bought this other pu erh, recommended to me by the teashop´s owner.
In nose the orange is quite subtle, while the strawberry gives a gentle aroma. Once brewed, the aroma´s are less fruity and more biscuitty, and in mouth this pu erh is quite similar to the caramelo belga version, minus the caramel sweetness. I definitely prefer the caramelo belga pu erh, but this is a balanced and easy drinking afternoon tea.

Flavors: Cookie, Orange, Strawberry

Preparation
185 °F / 85 °C 3 min, 0 sec 1 tsp 8 OZ / 250 ML

Bio

Introduced to tea by my sister-in-law in my country of birth = Belgium more than 30 years ago, I still love tea, mainly black, which I enjoy without sugar or milk. Having lived in UK, near good tea shops (e.g. Betty´s all over Yorkshire), I tend to buy most of my tea in bulk from tea shops (as such, most of these are not represented in my on-line cupboard). Nowadays, I live in Spain where tea gives me another sensatory bliss (as wine or beer or coffee can give me too).
