Kind of generic cooked tuo
 

OK I am a rank beginner, my first experience with puerh was from mini
tou cha which I enjoyed very much.
Now I have a few 100gm tuo of Yuhan cooked tea in a wrapper with a
crane on it and I am drinking the second infusion and I like it even
more than the minis,
These are the ones that sell for about 2$ from Ten Ren or Ten Tea.
Comparing a mini tuo to the larger ones is pretty much like comparing
the contents of a tea bag to recognizable leaves.
Being a beekeeper I did have to sit on my hands to not add a spoonful
of honey to the mix.
I may never be able to develop the descriptive vocabulary to describe
these teas but as I try new ones I'll post my impression.
Next to arrive should be some tangerine cured and a pomello cured, and
in a few weeks some better selections from Yunan.
This is going to be fun but my coffee maker is getting jealous!

You Coffee Maker will get over it! Enjoy the journey...

Dont wory about describing it with undue eloquence, just be yourself
and tell us what you like and dislike about it. The rest will follow
quite naturally.

The tuocha is probably a Xiaguan tea factory product with the crane, but
then, who cares? Leave the lexicon to others, sometimes nothing beats the
quiet wordless moments you sit down and sip your tea, and immersing in the
pleasure of it all...welcome.

I have a few 100 gm tuo of green tea from the same producer.
And a few other selections coming from Yunan Sourcing
I managed to get hooked on macha a few years back so the greens should
be fun.
I can't seem to get a reply from the folks at M&J's via Ebay perhaps
they are on vacation, I have not made enough sense of the lunar
calandar to nail down Chinas holidays.
I am dragging a few friends along for the ride as I explore these teas
and wanted to try the 888 year 2000 cooked cakes.
