Nice, middle of the road raw Puer.
Aromas of dried apricots, orange peel, fresh forrest floor and a hint of liquorice.
The taste is nice and sweet - honey, wet wood and mint.
Where this tea stands out though, is in the texture. Brew it nice and low in temperature, and You get an amazing silky smooth brew. I just wanted to keep it on my tongue, instead of swallowing. It coats the mouth and have a long sweet and peachy aftertaste.
At this price, it is an above average daily drinker.
Love it.
I'm pretty new to Chinese tea. This tea was a safe bet because of the price and it did not disappoint.
I get dried apricots on the finish. Good for cold brew too.
C'est un bon pu erh sheng, juste un petit peu trop léger à mon goût.
Bonjour Guillaume, merci beaucoup d'avoir pris le temps de laisser un avis. Vos commentaires sont très précieux pour nous !
Pour un thé plus corsé, à votre goût, vous pouvez essayer d'utiliser un peu plus de feuilles de thé ou un peu moins d'eau lors de l'infusion.
