Gong fu Leaf: sweet earth. Wet leaf: leather, rotten wood Very tasteful.

0 TDS distilled water with TeaCurious Original recipe to make 50 TDS water. Very mild. Subtle earthy and leather flavor. Smooth mouth feel. Rating Criteria: 0.5 - bad, flavorless, or worse very astringent, teabag 1.0 - mostly bad, flavorless, most teabag tea 1.5 - not good, but maybe something to like 2.0 - slightly disappointed, not my kind of tea, but still can appreciate it - probably the worst rating I would give a loose leaf tea (at least one that hasn't turned bad) 2.5 - mixed feelings, like it, but there is something off about it I don't like 3.0 - good, I like it but nothing stand out about it or a very good tea with one critique that holds me back - probably the highest I would give a teabag tea 3.5 - very good, a tea that I was very happy to have but content with what I had, wouldn't seek it out for additional purchase 4.0 - great, very happy with the experience, would seek out for purchase, but only occasionally 4.5 - a favorite, one I love and want very often 5.0 - life will be very sad without it, reserved only for my favorites (roasted Tie Guan Yin & Dancong Red), room for more hopefully

Gong fu Nose: sweet leather, sweet earth. Wet nose: spice, dark leather Die 2 days with this tea. I didnt want to break it therefore the first steeps were too much. Allmost 9 grams for 100ml. But it gets a 4 because it could give me easily 15 steeps. Im getting more used to shou puerh.

0 TDS distilled water with TeaCurious Original recipe to make 50 TDS water. Good leather flavor. Nice mouth feel. But ultimately kind of middle of the road for me. Nothing too exciting.

Gong fu Smells warm, not strong, little acidity Wet leaf: lots of leather Especially the first few steeps were really nice, warm feeling

I like this puerh more than the dragon ball one which I brewed yesterday. Watching sunset and enjoying tea

0 TDS distilled water with TeaCurious Autumn recipe to make 115 TDS water. Very similar flavor profile to the Tibetan tangerine dark tea earlier this year. While I find these interesting teas to try, I feel the rind gives it a weird citrus cleaner taste that would prevent me from buying these outside of the tea club.

I decided to divide the tangerine since only one is included in the shipment, brewed both tangerine peel and tea leaves in my myteapal gaiwan. Really interesting tea, I tasted Tibetian black tea in a tangerine before, but I haven't tried puerh tangerine before.
