Well, ripe-puerhs are still somehow unexplored part of my tea journey. I have lots of them, received from Michelle, and this one was one of them, but I feel again a bit lost. Thanks anyway!

They suggest “overleafing” this tea, so I have used all 15 grams, while I thought originally using it for two sessions. I will count it as a sipdown, though it is not a typical sipdown for me.

A sipdown! (M: 4, Y: 4)
Somehow, I have to agree very much with Togo who had “loose leaf” version of this, it has got earthy profile with hints of nuts, savoury as well as sour notes there too. A little creamy (I expected more from tons of creamy sweetness as YS writes in description!). Trying to find fruit notes and yes I think there are some, but not so strong.

Compared to yesterday gongfu session with white tea, this tea is miserable and unremarkable.

I am drinking almost everything. Tea bag collector who moved to wonderful world of loose leaf.

Trying to rate differently tea bags and loose leaf as tea bags have usually worse quality.

Photographer now and then. Postcrossing and geocaching member. Very curious person. Logistics student (should finish in June 2021).

Buried in tea right now. Is in my cupboard (trying to be updated) which sparkled your interest? Write me, I would gladly share with you. But I don’t want anything in return now :)
