From Angelina's Teas

This raw pu-erh mini tuo is produced with Pu-erh leaves from the Fengqing area of Simao. The leaves are fermented for 45 days and then allowed to dry naturally. At the time of compression the leaves are steamed in the vapor of cooked rice and then tightly compressed locking in the scent and flavor of rice. The flavor is unique and refreshing.

I wanted to try this because it was a raw flavored puerh (most seem to be ripe). Rice-flavored seems one of the popular flavors. Also, it was cheap.

I wasn’t impressed. The rice flavor seemed more like fermented or spoiled rice and was so strong that if filled my tea room with the aroma. It was also hard to rinse out my pot. The taste actually wasn’t all that bad and I suppose I could get used to it, but why bother?

Ripe with rice and Jasmine with raw.
Those are two of my rules I wrote down about pu’erh awhile ago. I have ripe with rice if you’d like to try it, quite good :)

Dr Jim

I think I have some ripe with rice left over from the TTB, but I’m not anxious to try it. I’m still rinsing out my pot. Part of my problem is that it was so strong a flavor. If I diluted it 5:1 with ordinary puerh I might like it better.

I’m not a big fan of any of the rice-scented puerh I’ve tried!

Although I do like toasted rice in green tea occasionally :)

Hubby thinks it smells like sweaty socks.

Dr Jim

I won’t disagree with the sock comment. I’m just glad I drank it in the summer so I could air out the room.
