The Re-Use of Leaves
The overnight taste to me is more purer than puer. It acts as a
mouthwash to clean the palette for the first morning pot. It's the
only tea I've found that overnight isn't more of the same in the
morning. It's a new day for different teas.

PS The leaves overnight cling to the pot in the morning after
brewing. I don't see that with normal multiple infusions. Perhaps
more evidence of the pu'er fairy.
