4 Tasting Notes

2003 Golden Sail Brand Yunnan Pu-erh from Guangdong Tea Import and Export Co. Ltd

This is a perfect blend of white tea and light fruit flavor. I am not a fan of teas with overwhelming floral or fruit notes, but this tea is blended to perfection. I personally enjoy it best chilled, but it is also great hot.

This tea is a great value. It is very rich and full-bodied, but also very dusty. The dust gives it a smoky, slightly astringent flavor that I haven’t encountered in puer before. If you are not a fan of this flavor, rinsing the tea before steeping diminishes the dust problem.

Yunnan Bo Nay Tea from foojoy

This tea is much sweeter and less dusty than the box labeled “Aged Yunnan Puer Cake Tea” by Foojoy. Very mellow, no hint of astringency. Lacks some of the rich character found in more expensive Puer teas, but a great value!

Bio

I love trying new teas and researching the history behind them. My favorites are Pu-erh and white teas, but I regularly drink black, green and herbals as well.
