Sipdown!! (161)
Whiskey Buzz sent this to me to try and at first I did not mind it but more and more I am realizing that, for the most part, pu’erh teas are just not for me. I find that for some reason the earthy fermented tea tastes just a little bit too much like dirt. For instance, this is sweet and pineapple-y but it tastes like someone dropped the pineapple first. Well, you live and you learn and what I have learned is I am not a huge pu’erh fan and that is okay. Anyways, thank you Whiskey Buzz for sharing this with me :)

Some puerh’s are less “dirty” than others. Hopefully you’ll find one someday you don’t mind.
or you won’t. There’s plenty of tea out there. :D
I hope you are right but even Cinnamon Swirl Bread, though very good, was too pu’erh flavored for me. I wasn’t so bothered in the later steeps as the pu’erh mellowed but the first steep got dumped.
It might be a good thing if I can eliminate a whole kind of tea because at least then I won’t be trying to try EVERY tea in the world, just MOST of the teas. haha.

Flavored puerhs = meh. Most of them are disgusting if you ask me. Puerh should be drank plain or with a bit of ginger if anything.
