This pu-erh tea is composed of a select grade of pu-erh compressed into a small brick. Its inky brown infusion is rich and sweetly-flavored, with mineral earthiness and the characteristic musty aroma. Our mini brick uses a higher grade of tea than most, resulting in a big body and smooth finish. It hails from Yunnan province, made from the selected tea trees there. Its flavor is mildly sweet. The infusion of this exquisite tea is light brown with a rose hue, yielding the earthy flavor and rich aroma. Each mini brick is individually wrapped and perfect for a small teapot or can be broken apart to accommodate a single serving.
About 5 grams each. Each piece makes 1-5 cups of tea. These little compressed cakes are an easy way to make Pu Erh. Pressed into little moulds, they have the typical Pu Erh flavour that has become so popular in recent years. Ideal for individual servings. These little cakes are easy to take along and make a nice gift for special occasions.

Camellia SinensisI got these on a whim because they are cute, portable, and they match Goldie.
The little brick only needed one rinse and then was smooth enough to drink right away. I found some nice cocoa notes and a very pleasant mouthfeel. It’s not my favorite shou, but I am enjoying it very much. I think that for travel or for convenience at work, these little pre-measured bricks are wonderful!
Sarsonator, if we eventually do another swap, I have about six or seven of these mini tuochas.
That’s right, keep on Shouing, little Dr Shou, you ;-)
Do you mean different varieties, Allan?
Yes, Mistress Shou Shou. I will keep on drinking! :)
Yes I have at least six or seven different varieties, from Yunnan Sourcing, Tuocha Tea, and EBay. The ones fromo YS were the best of the lot, the ones from Tuocha Tea were mostly good, and the ones from EBay were good.
Oh cool! I got some flavored ones from DTH, but it was a separate order. Those should arrive soon. :)
Allan, which ones fr YS?
