Exceptionally good, quadruple roasted mountain oolong.

Have you had any exceptional tea today?

 

In desperate need of caffeine I whipped out the Shrimp Pu-Erh.

What are you brewing today?

 

For me it's three kinds of oolongs, two pu-erhs, a white cake, and a couple of greens.

What's yours?

 

For me it was a blend of oolongs aged between 1989 and 1995. It tasted buttery smooth but with a hint of a very dusty attic.

 

Kicking the day off with some Sheng Pu-Erh. What's your today's steep?

 
 

I've heard that Raw (sheng) pu-erh, green and sometimes oolong teas are good for hot weather.

Is it true?

Do you have any recommendations or preferences on that?

 

A bit lighter in taste this time. Still a lovely steep of a good quality oolong.

What's the last oolong your tried? Or are you planning on trying one someday?

 

Hi! Please make yourself at home c:

As titled - what is your preferred brew or steep method?

What do you drink the most? Hot or cold?

I drink a lot of oolong and pu-erh teas brewing gong-fu style and I have yet to try coldbrew c:

 

This tea is very unique - it's a 2005 Shu Pu-Erh tea, but with a twist! It tastes like fried Shrimp, and don't get me wrong - it's delicious.

 

Shan Lin Xi bug bitten and charcoal roasted oolong in the cup. What's in yours?

Please don't feel intimidated by me doing gong fu :) It's just a preference, not a must.
