Even tho this is in loose leaf form and not a nest I gave it a little rinse.
Dry this doesn’t have much smell…once the hot water touches it – this has a very strong fishy/earthy pu-erh smell with an almost equal rose aroma. I don’t really care for the smell to be honest. But I will try not to judge a tea by it’s nose…
After the rinse was complete it did take a lot of the rose aroma away with it. But the pu-erh smell was still very strong.
This has a very dark liquor.
The taste is better than I excepted. It’s a cross between a black Yunnan tea and a clichéd pu-erh, I suppose – there are rose notes within the sip, too. I will say this is bold and burly. The end of the sip is much more my style compared to the front.
This is alright tho! Better than I expected…glad I rinsed and went with a lower infusion time tho!
I’m currently sipping on this pu-erh. It has a very strong fishy scent that I don’t really care for. The rose is in there too, so it kind of smells like fish and roses which is kind of a weird scent. I’m trying to not allow the aroma to prematurely affect my opinion of the tea.
I did a quick rinse and then 45 seconds for the first infusion.
This is alright. It definitely tastes better than it smells, because I’m not getting that fishy or brine-y taste that I expected since I experienced such a strong fishy scent. It has an earthy flavor, but, not fishy. It reminds me of the deep, earthy flavor of a mushroom.
The rose comes through nicely too … not a strong rose essence, but it compliments the deep earthy flavor of the pu-erh. Overall, an enjoyable pu-erh. I’m glad that I didn’t let the aroma stop me from tasting.
