Amy oh drank Pu-erh Ginger by Rishi Tea

I’m having a strong glass of this pu-erh this morning, very heavy ginger and pungent. Steeped in boiling water for 4 minutes it is pretty strong but I like it this way… nice and warming for the cold weather.

Hey, in one of your reviews, you had a link to RED BLOSSOM TEA CO and the have some really great teas! I was especially impressed with their Oolong selections. :))

Yes, I’ve been to their store in San Francisco and they have some really great teas, definitely not on the cheap side of things though.

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
