It’s a sad day now that I’ve drank the last of this tea. I’ve held on to the last 20 grams for ages. I caved about a month ago and drank 10g of the remaining leaf, but now, the tea is finally gone.
It was pleasant one to be had. I remember this was the sheng puerh that sang that sweet tune to my palate. It is soft, lightly floral, & pear notes throughout the session. I ended with the last steep sitting for 20 minutes in full boiling water. It was still soft, never bitter. I think at one point, toward the beginning, it couldn’t handle such abuse; now, it took all of the punishment, only to award the drinker.
I’m sad to see this one go, but was happy to have had the chance to see it develop within the past three years.
