A very nice everyday shu puer! A tea that is both sweet and smooth with traces of dark cocoa, malt and baked bread enjoyed throughout the tea session. The dark tea soup offers a sweet and bready aroma. The steeps are thick and syrupy with a mouth-coating sweetness. This shu is very clean with no off flavors of any type. It goes down easy and is quite soothing to me.

I drink mostly puer and sometimes what we as Westerners think of as black tea.

I no longer assign numerical ratings to teas because our enjoyment of tea is very subjective. Reactions to a particular tea vary from person to person and within the same person across different tasting sessions.

My tea notes are simply comments reflecting my impression at that specific point in time. They are helpful to me and if they happen to be useful to someone else that is good.

For me, tea is magical with its ability to transform by bringing one back to center and inspiring both peace and contentment.
Reformed coffee drinker. Switched to tea as part of my goal to work on living a healthier, more balanced life — haven’t looked back since.
