Origin: China, Yunnan Province Harvest: Spring 2005, cave-aged until 2010 Taste: Very strong and earthy, capturing the essence of shu pu-erh. Behind the Leaf: Though I have never had the pleasure of actually smelling a camel's breath, these mini-tuocha smell ... like what I assume a camel's breath would smell like. Don't let the name (or that description) put you off though. These pu-erh tuocha steep up a sturdy, dark, and intense liquor, producing a somewhat briny drink. The longer you steep it, the darker it will get-- this is a tuocha you can leave in your pot and add water to throughout the day. These pu-erh tuochas are cooked or “ripened” pu-erh (shu). |
