MY FIRST PU ERH YEAHHH! This one was also quite a bit smokey I guess? NOT AS MUCH as the lapsang but still very earthy and smooth! It’s another one I’d like to try again sometime; in fact I’d really like to get a better taste of pu erh in general. ANYBODY HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?
MrMopar recommended the 2009 menghai red aura and 2009 v93 tuocha to me. Here are links: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2009-Yunnan-Menghai-Red-Aura-Round-Cake-Ripe-Puer-Tea-100g-/220865384774?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item336c9a5146

I began reading some reviews by looking at the puerh list under the tea’s tab above and the most popular ones. I picked some to try. That was my method (also certain people and companies were favorites). Ask for samples too.
OH sweet! Thanks you guys!
SUPER CASUAL TEA AFICIONADO!
my tastes are not refined.
i tend to steep teas too long and give a lot of high ratings and get ridiculously excited over things; i apologize for my excessive use of caps but TEA IS EXCITING okay!
greens & oolongs are my favorite!
also like sweet black teas!
and occasional light fruity teas!
i’d love to do a tea trade with you!
