Default Pu Er tea story

I bought some pu erh tea balls from Adagio. A weird flavor, to be
sure, but it grew on me. So, I'd been drinking this stuff on/off fer
about a yr. My buddy, who is a bigger tea drinker than me, come over
and I offer him his first pu erh tea.

"I feel like I'm in an Army/Navy surplus store."

????

I take mine with one lump suger, he none. I tried my own pu erh w/o
sugar. Damned if it didn't smell jes like a stack of new military
fatigues.

Hadda flash back! Not to Vietnam, but to the seriously authentic
1950s surplus store in our own town with nothing but piles and piles
of surplus WWII and Korean War items.
