Prior to my stop at crimson teas a few weeks ago, I thought that all pu<\/g>–erh<\/g> tea was fermented. Turns out, there are two kinds, one fermented and one just packaged and aged. This is my first time trying the “raw” pu<\/g>–erh<\/g> and it was a lot different. It\u00a0had been packaged in 2014 according to the bag it came in, so it had aged for a little over four years when I tried it. For one, the bad smell is gone, and it was less oxidized than I was expecting, more like a green or maybe Oolong tea than what I think of when I think of pu<\/g>–erh<\/g>. The leaves were an interesting\u00a0texture, really large whole leaves that kind of unfurled as I drank the tea. the flavor was good, grassy, a little woody maybe like a really well-balanced cup of green tea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
