Thanks for asking :) WARNING: I got excited to respond. I’ve gotten into a Puerh kick lately. For those that don’t know, Puerh is a very dark fermented tea. My current one taste predominantly like leather with a hint of wood and dirt. High quality dirt. I adore this tea.
I’ve got a huge white2tea.com sampler order that hasn’t been shipped yet. I’m trying like 21 different teas spread across the following categories: white, ripe puerh, raw puerh, haungpain.
FYI haungpain is known as “Farms Tea”. It uses broken leaves and leaves lower on the tea plant that were/are considered lower quality. But I hear the lower leaves have a nice robust flavor, and most tea I buy tends to avoid the lower leaves. I’m excited to try it.
I’m thinking of reviewing all the tea I get posting them all on the tea community or something.
Since we are a few comments in, and can be sure few others are reading: have you heard of fuzhuan? Its another fermented tea category and I’ve only see great reviews online. Near every review has a comment being like “shhhhh, if this gets as popular as puerh then prices will rise”.
Its on my radar and I’m so curious about it. And tbh one of my favorite things is a big brick of tea. Fuzhuan often comes in 1kg bricks.
It is fermented using a fungus that can leave gold spots on it. Often called “golden flowers”. I hear it taste a lot like puerh, but has its own uniqueness. Honesty I’m a little scared of it lol.
But I’ve not seen a bad review for it. Though its good to consider that this tea category is obscure, so maybe only big tea nerds ever stumble upon it.
Wayyyyyyy too much tea
Get on my level lol
I tell my kids “if I’m not tea-ing I’m peeing”. It’s truly my only vice.
Lol let’s go.
Tea is easy to pretend it isn’t a vice. Just keep telling yourself its healthy. Even if it may be a bit more borderline at our levels lol.
what kinds :D
