  1. So what is "instant pu-erh"? It's sometimes called 茶膏, "tea paste". Instead of steeping tea leaves, you make a decoction!
    Basically tea leaves are boiled and are left to steep on low heat for days until there is no water left. The tea... residue? is then made to dry until it's hard, then it's aged.

    The result is a very concentrated tea! #puerh #masteadon #teas

  2. I have done a very good job of drinking my smaller teas, and I have now ONLY forty #teas in my tea drawer.
    I try to avoid going above fifty in general, which means I'll have some margin to buy more after the spring harvest :blob_tea:​
    And only eight #puerh cakes plus two pu-erh in somewhat loose form. One quarter of my teas being pu-erh seems very in character for me XD #masteadon

  3. It's 2am but I'm not sleeping and I want #tea so… perfect time to try the white tea sample of #wuyiorigin! (wuyiorigin.com/collections/whi)
    Next messages in this thread will be unlisted but I guess you should prepare for an invasion of #teas in your timelines! #masteadon

  4. Tonight I will prepare #kukicha !

    I do not own a kyusu, so I will be using my Korean #tea set.

    I mostly drink Chinese #teas now, and I have not drank kukicha for years so I am excited. I got this tea last month from a Parisian teashop I had never visited before so I don't know how good it will be. #masteadon

  5. L’heure du thé!

    Il neige beaucoup dehors et le ciel est gris, et je suis enfin à la fin de mon sencha asatsuyu récolté au printemps, qui m’a accompagné à travers l’été et l’automne de cette année.

    La plupart du temps, je prépare ce sencha comme si c’était un gyokuro (voir mes notes du 14: silvan.cloud/@gersande/1093426), mais j’avais besoin d’un peu plus de chaleur aujourd’hui. Le résultat est une infusion un peu plus vive, avec un caractère légèrement amer, mais ça m’aide à me réveiller!

    Avec ce thé je m’affronte finalement à mes tâches du vendredi. J’ai eu une grosse semaine et j’ai une grosse journée devant moi avant que je ne puisse me reposer cette fin de semaine.

    Bon vendredi tout le monde!
