8681 Tangerine Wrapped Pu-erh Tea

Tommy The Toad Thanks so much for this one!

To me…this smells like semi-burnt rice, pu-erh, and tangerine.

It infuses to a medium-dark brown.

This is better than I thought it would be. The Tangerine flavors are a nice compliment but not overdone. There is some sort of burnt rice flavor in there, too. The Pu-erh isn’t overpowering either. There are even bit of cocoa powder type flavors I am picking up right at the beginning of the sip.

The more I drink this the more I am liking it. Not bad at all.

I infused it for about half the time TTT did – at about 1 minute.

I thought i would realy like this one but i just didnt care for it much, i think maybe i dont care for the flavor that the orange gives to it i also broke up some of the peel to steep with it and to me it gave it an almost spicy flavor, it reminded me of the instant teas in a jar with powdered Tang mixed in that my mother use to get around the holidays, i havent drank it since its been cold outside tho so maybe it will be better in the wintertime. i got 3 of them and gave 2 to my brother and i still have my 1 lol.

Orange puerh is one of the few flavored teas that I still drink where I break up the orange peel that it was packed into and brew it with the tea leaves. The result is a sweet ripe puerh with heavy citrus flavor, which results in a very enjoyable casual drinking ripe puerh.
