I accidentally steeped this for a long time. Six minutes maybe? I’m not sure, it went way over my timer, as Mum had asked me to help her with something and it slipped my mind. Oops!
No matter, the tea was great. Really!!! I love cherry, and I love tart cherries even more! And boy was this tart. Not overwhelmingly so mind you, and I could definitely taste the puerh. Like one of those sour cherry candies. Mmmm. No sugar required.
Also, it’s a really nice change to have a flavour besides orange, chocolate, or toffee associated with puerh. Thanks TeaBrat for the sample!!

Shu puerh is awesome in that you can never oversteep it! :)
Ooh, interesting!
Wow, that sounds like a great combination! I had a strawberry flavoured one once which was just like drinking jam. Lovely.
This is one of my favorites from Nature’s Tea Leaf. Much conversation has taken place about the “perfect” cherry tea…this one comes as close to authentic cherry fruit (not candy) flavor as anything I’ve tried.
Stephanie, so true!! Unfortunately that meant my resteep turned out quite weak lol
Amariel, it really was!! I will have to order from them one day
Angrboda, yes stawberry!! I remember now as well, a strawberry puerh from The Spice and Tea Exchange. It was super tasty. I’m sad they discontinued it!
Gmathis, I could not agree with you more. Seriously, I’m still thinking about this one days later :P
I think it may be time for some more Berry Good from DAVIDs…
Amariel, Ooh yes that was a good one too!
I have not had it much this winter, but I did like it for spring and fall. And I admit I had it in the summer too.
The hibiscus would make it taste great iced!
Yes, though luckily the hibby is mild in that.
True. I guess it depends on what you end up with in your spoon from the packet!
