And I get to end the day with a sipdown!
This one is from my steep sister, Sil, & I have no idea what my current tea count is, probably 320 or something absurd like that (better that 400 + that it was a month ago!)
Confession: I really like tuochas. They are adorable & I’m a fan of things that are cute sized/shaped. So there!
Although this is not a bad puerh, as in fishy or ammonia-like, it does have a strong peat moss kind of quality, & is rather woodsy. I’m not complaining, but it’s certainly not as sweet as smooth as some of the Shu’s I’ve tried. The 2nd steeping is definitely nice & more developed than the first, & if I wasn’t heading out the door in a minute, I’d go for a third.
Maybe when I get home…

I gave it a quick rinse, & went with longer steepings, simply because I knew I wouldn’t have time for a yixing session.
I to love the small mini-touchas. Cute and perfect measurement for a gong-fu session. But be careful when ordering, many mini-touchas uses less than good quality… :)
Agreed. Some mini’s can be really nice, but others are probably the stuff they swept up off the floor, steamed & compressed, or something like that. :)
I’m on vacation…..2 more days until I’m back with my tea cupboard….I tried to bring tea but it didn’t work very well for whatever reason in terms of getting to find time to drink it.
i rinse this one twice

I was wondering how your vacay was going, Sil :)
Well hope you enjoy the break. ……Your tea is lonely and missing you. I know because they called me and told me so….
