2nd try with pu erh

2nd try with pu erh

ok

i have two puerh bricksof 250g. i tried before and used what i thought
was 3g. the result tasted strong and sent me into caffeine induced
fits.
i used about a quarter of what i tried before and it turned out good.
still alot difference then white teas but drinkable.
tried raw and cooked today, 7 infusions of each. no problems, i must
have overdosed the first time.
i used about as much as would be in a regular tea bag. i liked being
able to have 7 small 100ml cups while reading.
i am still confused on how to descibe the tastes. the 7th infusion of
the raw was the best, it was mild and had great mouth feel.

I hope you aren't worried by that! Just relax and enjoy it; the
vocabulary will come with increasing experience.

You now know one of the great things about Pu'er: its staying power.
