To me this one was more than a let down. It isn’t a ‘meh’ is more of a ‘AGGGHHHHHhhhh’ experience in my opinion. I’ve had great experiences with Yunnan Sourcing’s mini tuos… this is not one of them.
If I were to describe the taste of an not yet ‘aged’ ripe would normally be ‘like clean earth’. This one however (in my opinion, try and judge yourself), taste like unclean earthy. Like when you are eating mushrooms that were not properly cleaned… that ‘extra’ and unwanted earthy taste.
Final Notes
I’m REALLY glad I didn’t buy this one, my friend Roberto gave me around 5 to try more than a few months ago and I haven’t and probably won’t get myself through them. As always try things yourself, also remember that Puerh ages and the earthiness MAY… just MAY, get pleasant, I wont risk it.
I know it may sound odd but I sort of enjoy that flavor.
LOL well, it does sound a bit weird to me, because I don’t enjoy that but that’s why I said to try it. I know different people different taste, I love earthy puerh but this one feels like it has more dusting than I would allow. If we ever make an exchange I’ll be sure to put the mini tuos, maybe they will be enjoyed!
