Excellent every-day Pu Erh
J – MA – April 05, 2020
This is my favorite Pu-Erh, by far. It's dark, woody, and strong. By my taste, every brewing is perfect and it can't be over-steeped. This tea allows me to be really lazy; I put a tuo cha and hot water in a thermos with a filter top and let it steep indefinitely (I drink 2-3 of these per day). It also makes excellent cold-brew tea in summer.

Unlike other cakes or even tuo chas I've had, this one dissolves into a fannings (dust) style in seconds, making any strength other than very high all but impossible on the first brew. While it has a reasonable pu-erh flavor, it misses some of the subtlety I get on other pu-erh offerings. Good for 3 brewings of 11oz mugs.
Very Good PU ERH, woodsy, deep and complex flavors

I will admit at first being a little concerned being that the other Pu erh teas I have had were at least quarter size because I steep my teas in a dedicated french press. These discs are the right size for an 8 cup french press and impressed the tea this special, thank you!

My first Pu-Erh from Upton's. This was everything I was looking for: dark, strong, woody, and it re-steeps well. The size is great for me. Each cake measured just under an inch (24 cm) diameter, which was perfect for these little tulip infusers I got at Ikea. If you're on a budget or just want to try pu-erh, I Highly recommend this tea.
