This selection is a mixture of Shou Pu-Erh and the Nuo Mi Xiang herb. When infused, the liquor yields an earthy aroma with hints of cinnamon. The earthy flavor emerges in the cup, along with notes of dark molasses and honey. Each square or heart-shaped (as available) piece will yield approximately two cups of tea.
Steeping Suggestions
Leaf Quantity: 2.25 g/6oz cup Steep Time: 6-7 min. Water Temperature: 212 degrees (boiling)
This tea has such a unique wonderful smell/taste. It is described well in the description here. It smells so good, like dessert when it is steeping. I highly recommend.

After a year of drinking, this has become my favorite black tea! A couple notes: 1) if you don't like pu-erhs, you might still love this - the sweet sticky rice really offsets the fermented flavor; 2) each "packet" is designed for a 2-cup teapot - I use a 560cc pot, 3 mins for 1st brew, add 1 min for each subsequent brew. Enjoy!
Rich, flavorful pu-er

I love strong, earthy teas and this pu-er has quickly become one of my favorites. It's ideal for drinking gong-fu style too; there are a lot of infusions in one piece.
Excellent Pu-Erh

I've recently become a big fan of Pu-erh teas, and while I've never cared much for flavored teas, this particular combination piqued my interest. Am I ever glad it did! You get the earthy, funky, slightly peppery (it is Yunnan tea, after all) qualities that exemplify Pu-erh, with an added BIG note of sticky rice. Delightful.
Tasty and Productive

I really like and highly recommend this tea. My bestie purchase my teas from Uptons as gifts and for well being. Though Uptons does not promote their teas for therapeutic claims. I enjoy this tea pleasurable robust flavorful taste. This tea is so robust, it properties allow you to reusable it multiple times, with suttle loss in taste.
Magnificent

Wonderfully rich, with the ingratiating sweetness of a sticky rice pudding. The exotic perfume of the Nuo Mi Xiang herb pairs perfectly with the earthy Pu-Erh, creating a decadent and layered drinking experience. Notes of dark honey linger on the palate long after the tea is swallowed. The first tea to ever satisfy a dessert craving for me.

I absolutely love this tea. I purchased a variety of samples for my sister B-day. Her taste is not as safisticated as mine. I was so happy she gave me back this tea. I ordered more than one of these tea because I like it so much. We exchanged gifts.
Nice simple pu-erh

Yum yum. This one is earthy, starchy and rich. It's a go-to tea when I'm looking for something dark and strong.
