This cute little pu square was sent to me by Sarsonator, thank you sweetie.
Quick rinse and first steep is like a pale version of what it should be…i didn’t let it steep long enough, its super compact.
Second steep and…whoa! This doesn’t taste like shou…it tastes like roasted coffee beans!
Very dark and rich, slightly bitter just like a strong black coffee.
Now, I don’t drink a lot of coffee but I enjoy a cup once in a while. And I drink mine black, so this is very reminiscent.
I would say it resemble Special Dark a tad. Certainly as rich and full bodied.
Third steep and it’s still not completely loose, this will render many steeps.
And it provides a pretty intense qi, made my heart beat a little faster and gave me tons of good energy. Really, i see this as a potential regular morning cuppa. I think it would do as good brewed western style cause it doesn’t have a very complex flavor profile. The steeps tasted almost all the same.
I agree with Sarsonator’, a must try to all the coffee lovers out there!
Here’s a look:

I always let these mini’s sit for about 30 minutes after the first rinse. This lets them slowly open up for good brewing.
That’s such a good idea, will sure keep that in mind :-)
Yeah those little ones are so tightly compressed it is hard to get them to open any other way.
Great idea, mrmopar! Dope slapping myself for not thinking of it.
Ashmanra big hands little tuos and small tea picks don’t mix.
