Ripened Chrysanthemum Pu-erh Mini Tuocha from Teavivre

Dinahsaur drank Ripened Chrysanthemum Pu-erh Mini Tuocha by Teavivre

I received a sample of this in my most recent shipment from Teavivre (Thanks, Angel!). I’m excited to try it out since I love a good pu-erh and I really enjoy chrysanthemum herbal infusions.

I was a little concerned at first since there was precisely one chrysanthemum in the tuo. Then I realized that it’s been in that little wrapped up tuo for quite a long time, so I really haven’t got anything to worry about, now have I?

I’m in the office, so I used my “Perfect Tea Maker” or whatever it’s called from Teavana (a very nice gift from my friend, TheDizzyPixie). The infusion is nice and dark and beautiful to me. It has the earthiness of any pu-erh, but a nice sweetness to the aroma that speaks to the chrysanthemum.

The tea itself is a surprisingly mellow, nice pu-erh with a pleasant, lightly sweet after-taste.

I’m very happy with this and imagine I shall be ordering more in future!

This sounds nice. I hope I get a sample or two of puerh with my teavivre order.

Bio

There’s not a lot to say about me, I suppose. I’m a pretty standard nerdy girl in a lot of regards, from my taste in music, books, and movies to my penchant for getting completely wound up in various activities and hobbies. One of my hobbies that never seems to fade away is my joy in writing. I’ll write about any number of topics and have been working on keeping up my personal blog like never before.

Doing so has inspired, in part, my blog about Tea. Fun and FlirTea is dedicated to introducing tea to and enticing today’s younger, coffee-drinking generation. It’s a fun place to learn about tea and hopefully start meeting more people as well!

More than almost anything else, I enjoy sharing the things I love and helping spread that joy. So now it’s time for me to do this with tea, and I couldn’t be more excited!
