I’ve been drinking this for about 3 hours. I went with about 8G in my yixing, with the initial steeps very short, & then building the time up. I haven’t had any of this since March, I think, & today the Chaqi is outrageous! I’m flying high & loving it! Such a tasty Shu, my little cake is pretty much a flat disc now. I have a Phatty Cake II waiting in the wings.
Anyway, these leaves still appear to have much to give, but I’ve definitely had enough tea for today, so I put them in a jar of water, & they are in the frig now, to become a refreshing drink.

can’t wait to hear your thoughts on PC II. So far people have been happy! The original has more time under its belt following steaming and pressing, but the PCII is made from same 2007 material and the added larger leaf. Thank you for sharing your thoughts, my dear!
I don’t know if I’m really storing them properly, they are in a cardbox (one for sheng & one for shu) in my office on the 2nd floor. At least they are away from the kitchen smells…
