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!

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.
