This little tangerine packs a flavor punch!

These little stuffed citrus teas always intrigue me because you never know how much citrus will impart on the tea. On the dry leaf and peel, I definitely smell tangerine, wet leaves, and a distinct umami smell. The first infusion is smooth - the liquor is very brothy, mouth coating, and indefinitely get tastes of tangerine and umami. As I continue to steep, subsequent infusions begin to take on notes of black pepper on grilled corn, both on the liquor and on the nose. It's such a unique taste, and truthfully, I couldn't stop drinking it because it's such an interesting flavor.

Chenpi Sheng Puerh Tea in Little Tangerine

This is a treat if you like pu erh. The soup stayed a nice & clear walnut color. Really dark and rich, has the faintest hint of tangerine, really puts the mug together. Unsure of "how long will it last?", but I recon 7-8 mugs if you do a 30-45 second steep each. Quality product, am adding to normal rotation :-)
