This is a small tuocha made of tips/buds raw materials from Lincang area. After being stored in USA for close to 8 years, something has happened to it. The ageing element does kick in as witnessed by the color of the brewed soup – it becomes golden, oily with certain thinkness. It’s almost a 10 year old tea.

Tea DrunkI have been sicker than a dog all day, and I honestly wasn’t up to par for multiple short steepings in my lil gaiwan…So, I opted instead, for 1-45second steeping, and 2-1 minute steepings in a glass pot. Mysterious, earthy and lightly smokey.
I am sure this has many more infusions left and while this particular puerh is not especially complex, it feels to me like classic puerh without any bitterness or other distractions~ straightforward.
This is good
so sorry you’ve been under the weather :( glad the tea seemed to be tasty! :)
What is this lingering after taste? I can’t truly identify it,
but it’s slightly sweet & understated.
Hope you’re feeling better soon!
Thanks Sil & Suzi~
The tea definitely pulled me through.
Hope you feel better soon! The “bug” has been around here as well. Yucky feeling to have. lots of good puerh will leave that sweet aftertaste.
Thanks Mr Mopar that is good to know!
