It's probably because it's the higher-quality one of the bunch, as confirmed by many of the tasters. These experiences may be dictated by quality until you've grown acclimated to Pu-erh. I'm not sure if it's true that you "can't" drink a young, raw Pu-erh as your everyday tea. It's probably more like many people don't really want to do it. <a href="http://www.jasonwitt.org/teaternity.html" rel="nofollow">--Teaternity</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661206873613003503.post-68359907555744883112009-09-26T19:10:31.086-05:002009-09-26T19:10:31.086-05:00I reported the incident to Facebook.

It has been such a mad week (you have no idea), and I am looking forward to sitting down over a new pu-erh to learn from tonight. Hopefully, I'll have something useful to blog about this evening.<br /><br />And Peter, I have sent you a message via Facebook, which I hope you have received.<br /><br />And Salsero, I am glad we straightened out that little Facebook scammer issue. I hope you have solved the problem?<br /><br />Cheers!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13686236529267573559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661206873613003503.post-18369254888662479482009-09-24T00:02:57.728-05:002009-09-24T00:02:57.728-05:00Well, I would certainly enjoy hearing more about t...Well, I would certainly enjoy hearing more about tea from GuaFengZhai!

Keep on trying and send me your address to facebook box to Peter Stanik and Ill send you some more samples. In a month time I will have arriving a smaller cargo of about 9 Puerhs from Yunnan, from 4 different local tea merchants so Ill keep you informed and make you Puerh quest 'colourful'. :)ezorrohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17656869515543619588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661206873613003503.post-59234507388951666602009-09-21T17:46:11.350-05:002009-09-21T17:46:11.350-05:00Good for you, Steve, what a great experience! BTW...Good for you, Steve, what a great experience! BTW I just reviewed a tea from your old neck of the woods - a really super Arya Estate FF. Someday I amy have the nerve to try pu-erh, my one experience was a "so what?" kind of thing.Marlenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01075020988377774265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661206873613003503.post-45656912663825543852009-09-18T22:37:11.110-05:002009-09-18T22:37:11.110-05:00I probably used a bit less leaf (because the first...I probably used a bit less leaf (because the first time I steeped the pu, it was just too strong for the size pot I used). And no, I didn't crush to break up the beeng, but I did very carefully separate the leaves. I wanted to take the time to avoid potential bitterness.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13686236529267573559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-661206873613003503.post-43017872414200924672009-09-18T21:58:00.887-05:002009-09-18T21:58:00.887-05:00Did you also use the enormous amount of leaf that ...Did you also use the enormous amount of leaf that Brandon does in the video? ... and crush it us like that?Salserohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17538918784870619787noreply@blogger.com
