The quality of leaf and the careful production differentiates this Yunnan Pu-Erh from the common varieties. Still intense and earthy, but smoother and more complex in flavor. A sample is suggested for the uninitiated.
Steeping Suggestions
Leaf Quantity: 2.25 g/6oz cup Steep Time: 6-7 min. Water Temperature: 212 degrees (boiling)
I am familiar with puerh of different types and qualities. Smooth and quaffable this drinks lighter than it looks. The typical shu flavors are thin but clean. Earthy flavors are pleasant with no oily or overly funky characters. Clarity of flavor and a refreshingly mentholated eucalyptus finish indicate a quality blend that has been stored properly.
My favorite Pu-erh!

I bought this tea based solely on the one review already posted. I completely agree with everything said there! Amazing tea!
Now this is a Pu-Erh

I've had a love/hate relationship with Pu-Erh teas for many years - bought them from Asian markets. But after trying this Pu-Erh I am now a convert! I recommend a 10 minute steep - that's when it's dark charms fly from the cup like witches leaving a coven. It casts its dark spell with the first sip and that's when you know you are possessed.
