Puerh Tea TTB. Thanks to White2Tea for giving me the opportunity to try this tea. The main notes I get from this are bamboo, spice and wet wood. There is a lot of wet storage taste to this tea. I wish I could say I really liked this tea but I can’t. It is however a nice example of an aged sheng. There is no doubt in my mind to the age of the tea, bot the color of the liquid and the taste say aged sheng.
I steeped this tea twelve times in a 60ml gaiwan with 5g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse and a 10 minute rest. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, 30 sec, 45 sec, 1 min, 1.5 min, and 2 min. I stopped because of the caffeine factor but I’m sure that this tea would go the distance if I wanted to continue.
Flavors: Bamboo, Spicy, Wet Wood
