Togo drank 2021 Yunnan Sourcing "Cucumber Village" Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake by Yunnan Sourcing

994 tasting notes

I seem to have had a very similar experience to TJ Elite with this tea. It is a sweet vegetal one, with underlying nutty and floral background. I definitely prefer some other Jinggu teas (like Da Qing Gu Shu mentioned in the other review). This one reminds me a bit too much of green oolongs at its present state, and its mouthfeel is not particularly engaging.

Flavors: Cucumber, Grass, Grass Seed, Honey, Melon, Nutty, Peat, Sweet

Preparation

Boiling 0 min, 15 sec 7 g 3 OZ / 100 ML

I had been drinking Japanese green tea for a while before discovering the world of tea in 2017. I rarely drink blends and generally avoid artificially scented teas. Other than that I try to keep it varied.
