A new (Six year old) Shu Pu-Erh on the menu

Yunnan Longrun Pu-erh Tea Cake-Chunhui (Year 2011, Shu Pu),357gAfter a couple of weeks and many infusions, I give this tea a strong recommendation. Nice strong rich tea with a interesting hint of licorice flavor, aroma is non assaulting but reassuring.

It is said; “A rest is as good as a change….”

A respite well deserved … pacing is the key to steady progress.
