drank Master Han's Shu Pu'er 2002 by Verdant Tea
301 tasting notes

This is a tasty, warming, clean ripe puer brick. Revisiting after almost 12 months, I found it very comforting (as always). Many rich steeps over the last few days. The dry leaf offers the satisfying smell of old book leather. The tea liquor is a dark reddish brown color and yields the scents of sweetness and dark chocolate. There is a mix of fruity + creamy flavors in the sip. Dense and rich with an appealing earthy sweetness serving as the foundation for the overall impact of the tea.

This tea reminded me of one I used to get from the Phoenix collection, one of my favorite shu/ripes.

Bio

I drink mostly puer and sometimes what we as Westerners think of as black tea.

I no longer assign numerical ratings to teas because our enjoyment of tea is very subjective. Reactions to a particular tea vary from person to person and within the same person across different tasting sessions.

My tea notes are simply comments reflecting my impression at that specific point in time. They are helpful to me and if they happen to be useful to someone else that is good.

For me, tea is magical with its ability to transform by bringing one back to center and inspiring both peace and contentment.
Reformed coffee drinker. Switched to tea as part of my goal to work on living a healthier, more balanced life — haven’t looked back since.
