So I tried my first Pu Er (or what is sold as Pu Er) today. Very
different. :-) The term earthy really does it justice. I think I am
going to come to enjoy this particular tea, a lot.

heh, I think everyone (myself included) hears the "earthy" term thrown
around and thinks they know what it means... and then they have a
cup

Quite right! Hah. Actually, what surprised me was that when I heard that
it was an ``earthy'' tea, I thought that it would have a bit of grit to
it. Amazingly, it really was smooth and earthy at the same time. I
thought that was kind of an oxymoron before I tried some. :-P

Actually, while I like it in my first testings, I don't have the time,
either, to go fishing around to find the absolute best. I think I'll
have plenty of fun to start with using the stuff I got from Little
Mountain. I have two cans, so I'm interested to see how the tastes vary
from the same company. After I finish this off, which may take a while,
I'll see where else this tea leads me.
