I managed to get seven steepings of equal strength using boiling water the last couple times for four-ten minutes. I can’t believe how invigorating and relaxing the combination of pu-erh and rose is! I love this tea so much the sight of muddy liquor has become pleasant. I smile every time I see the equally ugly jar of tuocha on my bookshelf. Just to make sure I always have some close.
That combo sounds lovely. Earth and rose … mmmm. And I say this as a non-fan of pu-erh. Actually, I like it just fine, but it does not like me — often leaves me queasy.
