Wild tea
This review helped: 0 / 0
Leaves are brownish-black in colour and are pretty long, some up to 3 cm. Tea scent is delicate.
Wet leaves have very strong sweet smell after overripe berries. I cannot wait to taste it :)
Colour of the infusion is brown like toffee.
Taste of first infusion is slightly sweet, fruity. There is a very pleasant astringency which stimulates salivation in the aftertaste. The second infusion is sweet again. Strong wild astringency remains on the tongue. The astringency is not unpleasant. It has a very specific - forest flavour. After a while the astringency disappears and remains the taste of sweet berries. The energy of the tea is warming my face.
The first four infusions were the best. It is an exceptional red tea baked very carefully which preserved his “wild” taste.
5 g per 170 ml, water 99°C - 25s, 30, 35, 40, 50, 60

Quotes - Pu-erh
„bing; 饼 - cake. Something shaped like a cake. 茶饼; cha bing - tea cake. This is a cake of tea that has been pressed by hand or machine into a compact form. Easy for transporting and storage. The more tightly pressed it is, the slower the tea will age. They can range in size from 100 gms to several kilograms.“
