Flavors: Earth, Forest Floor, Herbs, Rice
Preparation
An awesome and extremely smooth and mellow ripe Pu-ehr tea! :D i can taste earthy taste. its the best smooth and mellow ripe Pu-ehr i have ever tried! :D many thanks to Scott Wilson and Yunnan sourcing
Flavors: Earth
Preparation
a yummy tea! :) tastes like strong roses too :) though when brewed it smells a tad bit fishy but for some reason has no fishy taste :) maybe it should be aged more thus why the fishy smell. still a yummy tea. thank you to the staff at Yunnan sourcing and to Scott Wilson
Flavors: Earth, Rose
Preparation
If it smells fishy, give it a “rinse” first. Use slightly cooler water than you would for brewing, and just dunk it for 5 or 10 seconds. I find it helps
I received this as a free sample :) another wonderful tea :) nice and smooth and a tad Smokey in taste :) many thanks to Yunnan sourcing and Scott Wilson for this amazing free sample. :D
Flavors: Earth, Smoked
Preparation
what an awesome pu-ehr! I can taste a tad bit of camphor and a lot of mushroom :) although its hard to pry from the brick (as it is dry) there’s like no fishy taste :) (even though I don’t mind the fishy taste) it tastes best when I let it steep for quite a while. many thanks to Yunnan sourcing and scot Wilson for this wonderful tea! :D

Preparation
when i won the teavivre contest i gave one pack to my friend Duane. he did not get a chance to use it. so me and him had a campfire and we roasted hotdogs and used the pack of i think 6 grams and made a good amount of this tea :P since it tasted better with fire boiled water, I’m changing the score 80 —→ 85
