YMY 1690 Pu-erh Tea

Oolong Tea by Stash Tea Company

An ancient medicinal tea from China’s Yunnan province. A centuries old secret processing method allows the broad leaves to oxidize longer than the oolongs, giving a unique earthy flavor.

Oh, this smells funky as the teabag soaks. Like fish. That’s really a nasty smell for my first cup of the day. I hope it doesn’t taste like fish or I will have one seriously unhappy mouth.

The tea itself isn’t that bad…definitely tastes like dirt but with an almost sweet note. But ugh, that smell! Every time I lift the cup to my lips I am grossed out by it. I’m gonna go dump this out.

(I can’t remember if I’ve had Puerh tea before, but this Stash teabag is NASTY and I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone!)
