My only hope is that when I do drink Pu-erh tea, I don't have to deal with the pain of eating earth, snow, or asphalt, nor spend the money needed for dental repair!

(Really, you've never eaten dirt, accidentally? I'm impressed!)
Dirt...sounds familiar and I actually can imagine its taste and I think I could associate Pu-Erh's taste with dirt

What Stitchawl said.
Every weekday morning I drink a cup of Assam Mangalam or Assam BPS CL Mangalam...
I have given it a much easier and right to the point nick: Assam Hammer. It is sooo strong.
If you can see it on the pictures the leaves are made into small pellets but I still put one spoon per 300ml cup/mug. I guess it is a lot more concentrated than usual tea leaves. Here you go with the caffeine deficiency
or Here

Anyway, I just finished a cup of Assam Hammer or Assam Hammerhead?
Next one is English Breakfast with a distinctive taste of the same Assam.
