Naked Pu-erh from Art of Tea
80

Shu pu-erh of the afternoon. I am almost done with the little tin of this but probably won’t be buying anymore with all of the pu-erh I have already. Plus nothing about this really stands out to me, although it isn’t bad at all.

On another topic, has anyone noticed that a watched tea order seems to take forever to arrive??

Oh yes. Very much yes. I know just because I’ve been stalking this Lupicia order for a week tht UPS won’t deliver it till at least 6pm tomorrow.

I’ve had the worst luck with UPS and Lupicia. They lost my package for a solid month. :(

Or maybe it was FedEx…I don’t actually remember. But it sucked.

I guess I’m lucky there’s a Lupicia in SF!

Oh man. I used to live in LA and could just go to the storefront too. I really miss it. They’d always prepare a sample of whatever I wanted to try. Such great customer service.

‘Stalking’ a tea order LOL! And yes, it takes forever. Like arriving at school/work and immediately looking at the clock. Here at DC the worst for me has been USPS, they either deliver on time OR deliver later and the box looks like was part of the ‘Cast Away’ movie (that was FedEx in the movie though… I think).

USPS annoys me because their “delivery confirmation” is totally inaccurate – sometimes a package will show up days after it says it was delivered!

Yep, hit the nail in the head. I’ve had packages delivered with only ‘information accepted’ as the last ‘update’.

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, 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
