Puerh Tea TTB. This ite is really very good. It’s already got a nice dark color to it despite being only from 2011. It had no notes of leather or tobacco. It had very little bitterness. It was nice and sweet. I think I might use the term apricots. It had not lost that young sheng sweetness yet but seemed to be turning the corner as far as aging goes. This was really good sheng. It’s an autumn tea. Not sure if it is sweeter because of that.

I steeped this eight times in a 120ml gaiwan with 7.2g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 10 second rinse. I steeped it for 5 sec, 5 sec, 7 sec, 10 sec, 15 sec, 20 sec, 25 sec, and 30 sec. Could have gotten a lot more out of it but want to move on to another tea.
