CYH 2011 jincha - almost seems a waste but going to grandpa this today since its a hectic day.
What sorts of decent shou have you really enjoyed? I'm with you in finding shou more enjoyable. I used to only drink sheng, but now I see the value in shou.Noonie wrote: ↑Wed Aug 05, 2020 8:04 pmI started with sheng and couldn't get enough of it for 8 months or so...then I tried some decent shou and this is has been growing on me, to the point where I'm now preferring it to sheng. Although I feel like I'll swing back or at least go back to 50/50 between them. Lately I've been drinking shou every morning, and sheng every other day or so (in the afternoon).

Drinking puerh on a empty stomach is a good way to get a quick and easy colon cleansingNext generation sequencing revealed high fungal and bacterial diversity in Pu-erh tea. Fungal diversity drops and bacterial diversity rises as a result of raw or ripened fermentation. The composition of microbial communities changes significantly among fresh leaves, raw and ripened Pu-erh with the aged raw tea having similar community to ripened tea. Age of tea is identified as a significant variable affecting microbial community of raw tea, but not of ripened tea. Multiple mycotoxins were detected from either or both categories of Pu-erh, but all but patulin and asperglaucide were under the safety limit. For safe drinking, we recommend discarding the first brew.
Be careful with that stuff, it's very aggressive, even with enough food intake beforehand... good way to ruin your stomach in the long run
I ordered a sample of that, but it's still stuck in shipping limbo xDlUKAV28 wrote: ↑Thu Aug 06, 2020 6:20 pmThis is an incredible shu https://essenceoftea.com/collections/pu ... -shou-puerJustin wrote: ↑Thu Aug 06, 2020 1:07 pmWhat sorts of decent shou have you really enjoyed?

I used to scoff at such statements and had all manners of tea on an empty stomach for years... until I had some young xiaguan one morning. Never again!
Sort of lucky. I placed orders in February and they got here before issues. In June I started placing orders again. I had two orders arrive at ISC on the same date, but two different locations. The one from Chicago got here in three days. The one in san fran... still waiting on it. 7 weeksI am on the same boat as you...my March order from EOT has been stuck in Shanghai since mid May.
