I've got hold of some 'pu-erh yunnan tea' - how does one infuse etc ?
Presumably they can be steeped multiple times ?


Assuming this is an oxydized pu-erh, and we can probably say that,
use water right off the boil, do a quick rinse of the leaves --
that is, quickly pour


Actually its moulded - in the form of mini 'tau-chas' (sp?) wrapped in tissue
paper.


That would be tuochas, I think.

I presume boiling water still though. Is this a tea that can be infused
multiple times ?


Yes yes yes!
