2012 Xiaguan FT "Mushroom Tuo" Ripe Pu-erh Tea

Lives up to the name

This ripe is very marshy, (in a good way!lI did 15 second steeps the first time and I think doing 10 seconds with 100 ⁰C worked best for me to coax out the heaviness out slowly.

Very nice!

It's a great tea. Doesn't have as many steeps in it as I'd like but it's got a good malty funk to it.

The softly and charming Ripe

The influence for my body and mind of the Mushroom Tuo is amazing for me. It is softly drinking tea, with lovely nuts in taste and I like beautiful and unusual form of it :)
