Name: Maiden’s Ecstasy Pu-erh Tea<\/span><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n

Type: Black (Pu-erh)<\/p>\n

Region: Yunnan, China<\/p>\n

Bought At: Samovar<\/a><\/p>\n

Price: $4 for a \u201cone pot\u201d sample<\/p>\n

First Impressions: Roasted, signature pungent smell Pu-Erh<\/p>\n

Review:<\/p>\n

I was hesitant about this tea after the only other Pu-Erh tea I have tried, due to the pungent smell.\u00a0 This one did not have the smell before brewing however, so I thought\u00a0 it might be better.\u00a0 Once brewed, the familiar smell returned, all though it was not nearly as overpowering. The flavor was good, very smooth and mellow.\u00a0 No sweetness, no bitterness, just a slight earthy tone.\u00a0 It is a good “slow” morning tea, not as strong an english breakfast, but stronger than a green or white.\u00a0 I had to knock it some for the smell, but the flavor is very good.
\nMy Rating:<\/p>\n
