Tea for the afternoon… Bana does pick some very lovely shengs. I steeped this in the xiying and am having a great session drinking out of my glass mug. I wrote an extensive note on it a while back. It still seems lemony and a bit earthy, flowery. I still think the Bana sampler sets are a great deal for anyone wanting to explore a lot of good quality pu-erhs.
This is You :-D

Bio
My profile pic is of a pink dahlia at Golden Gate Park.
Hobbies include: tea, making art, animals, vegan things, buddhism, nature, creativity, books, writing, cooking, meditation, yoga.
I am a fan of many different teas but my favorites are blacks and oolongs, chai, also like darjeeling and pu-erh. I’n always learning and expanding my horizons!
Dislikes include: bergamot, jasmine, highly tannic or bitter teas, overly judgmental and bitter people. :)
Live in San Francisco, I’m a SINK (single income, no kids) and love the urban life, but traveling out to the middle of nowhere is always fun too.
I tend to not drink things I know I will hate so a lot of my tea ratings are on the higher side. Here’s my rating system, sorta
95-100 I love this tea and would like to keep it around
94-90 An excellent tea which I may or may not repurchase
89-80 Pretty good, above average
79-70 Acceptable
69-60 Mundane – Will probably drink it if I have it
59-50 Ick
49 and below Nasty

Thanks for the heads up. I am going to look into pu-erhs some time soon. :D
