Brewed this one up western style this morning. I buy mini tuocha specifically for that purpose. This one is fairly good. It has a fair amount of fermentation flavor. That flavor is not fishy or unpleasant. It is sweet with little bitterness. It is good for a mini tuocha puerh tea. I can’t say that it is likely high quality leaves but it tastes good just the same. I bought twenty of these so I didn’t get a lot. I would buy them again.
I brewed this one time in a 16oz Teavana Glass Perfect Tea Maker/Gravity Steeper with 3 buttons or about 15g leaf and boiling water. I gave it a 20 second rinse. I steeped it for 30 seconds.
Flavors: Earth, Sweet
