drank 2011 Mengku Grade 3 Ripe Puerh Tea Mini Tuocha by Yunnan Sourcing
38 tasting notes

These little guys are pretty good! They have a nice smooth mouthfeel and pack a nice cha qi. The nose is earthy with fresh bread and a slight sweet smell. The taste is very nice and earthy. Not a lot of sweetness but really malty/fresh bread-like. No bitterness at all making it an enjoyable session. Mini Tuochas get a bad rap but I would recommend these for sure. A nice easy to make (5g Tuochas) tea. Very nice.

Tea is my offering to the muses. Fuel for song. I like Oolongs, Blacks, Shou and Sheng Pu’erh. Each were a “gateway drug” that led to the latter in that same order. I fear becoming an obsessed brew fiend though I think that I have possibly crossed that line after trying my first Pu’erh. I don’t pretend to be a knower of all things tea but hope to learn more everyday….so please feel free to share as it would be much appreciated.
