Raw Pu-erh Tea

The top compartment is not vacuum, sealed the way the bottom, larger, drinking compartment is, so it can get hot on the top, which is something to know. However, it holds roughly the same amount as the bottom, which is not obvious in the picture, and it does exactly what it is advertised to do and filters very well, with minimal sediment going into the insulated portion.

One other tip is to hold it 45°, which helps the water transfer better from one section to the other when brewing.

All in all happy with this, especially as a reward option.

Really nice introduction to teas not generally available in the US. Good starting points for exploration and enough in each sample for a few pots or sessions.

Not much experience with puerh, but I have enjoyed the sample very much so I bought a cake. Light earthy sweetness to it. Has a very familiar and comforting taste. Great brewed in a thermos at boiling. Impossible to oversteep.

I really like this Wuyi Oolong, the quality is very high for the price. The upfront mineral taste seems much stronger than other yancha like Fo Shou or Shui Xian, but it still has complexity to it. Awesome tea, awesome value!
