Pu Er 2006 Bulang Shan from Camellia Sinensis

Pu Er 2006 Bulang Shan

Pu-erh Tea by Camellia Sinensis

The mild smoky notes of this compressed Pu-erh are paired nicely with the sweet and light vegetal bitterness. It reminds us of strolling through a forest where moss, lichen, and mushrooms grow side by side. A perfect initiation into the world of young Pu Er, and their aging and maturing.

I don’t drink a lot of pu-erh, but found this enjoyable. I’ll probably write a longer review after I go through the 25g bag.

Until now I really have not had an “enjoyable” pu erh. So I was very happy when I picked out this tea and tried it. Camellia Sinensis (the company), sells a lot of pu erh so I’ll definitely try some others in the future.

For today’s cup, I steeped it three times (+ rinse). Each of them were enjoyable, and I didn’t feel the urge to dump the water after the first sip. Not something I want to drink often, but nice every now and then. Looking forward to trying more pu erhs. :)

Tried this again today but with many short steeps. I think I prefer it that way too. 1 through 4 were tasty, the flavor was not overpowering.
