I think I prefer the stronger flavor to the more mellow flavor.
On the other hand, I will save myself some cash this way.

A few more about T
uocha, which is more than likely was young. Price is a good indication in this case.

Can you feel drunk from drinking tea? Apparently yes. Taking into account my health problem, I thought that the dizziness comes back. I complained to my wisest 2/3s and she said that it has nothing to do with dizziness but with drinking good Pu-Erh. She has read that it is possible to get drunk from this tea.
All I want to say WTF??? but I think I better google for it.

Not much taste left. I think I put a bit too much water this time. I also think I like stronger flavour anyway. So, 2 resteeps for me (maybe for the third resteep half the amount of water). The first two were heaven |

I hoped to dislike it and be off the hook. No chance.
