TeaChat

Have you guys ever taken the time to read some of the reviews on Adagio's website on their pu po and pu dante? God, I laughed myself sick reading their first impressions on their first taste of pu! I can imagine what they must of looked like! Something possibly like this - lol Just rich!

Not as hilarious as this steap episode 21

and I am not talking about their childish jokes on "pu er"

Is that how its pronounced? Pu-er? I have always head it like pu-air.

I can only imagine what a misc shupu that's been boiled for seven minutes would taste like.

Space you are correct. It supposed to soudn like pu-air. However, with more of a 'soft' a, breaking into the er. Like someone doesn't want to annunciate the air part but has to. Boy it is hard describing sounds in text.

funny funny stuff. I'm taking another go at puerh, suffering my own private version of puerh shock today.

The one "steeping" episode is absolutely ridiculous. Im sure a lot of producers and avid Pu fanatics in China are thinking ....."how did we let the westerners get a hold of this stuff!?...."

i thought its pronounced

poo'uhhh
or
poo'uhhr

"hphoo'uarh"

yeeeeea

Surely there's an entry in the Klingon Dictionary to answer the question.

Trik-lat-dar ... Klingon for Pu-erh!

Perhaps the name originated from a light brew lover's first sip. Rather, the quote of the first person who brewed it a bit too long.

one day, tea boy was playing with him..errr... his yixing...

la-di-da-deee-daaa ...
...
then suddenly a disturbance !

*knock knock*

Whose there?

Tea delivery sample from secret admirer!

...oh boy !
and he brews up a little piece of the black looking tea

...and takes a sip....

aaaah POOOOO !!!! .... phewwww ... poooo ... errrr? ... hmmmm... interresting ....

I was thinking more
<guy1>"Here's some leaf of a new kind of tea I've found!"
<guy2>"Thanks!"
*guy2 goes home to brew it, gets caught up in reading or meditating*
<guy2>*sip* "PUARHH!"

I likened it to an episode of Sesame STreet:
Poooo Ehrrrrr
Pooo Ehrrr
Poo Ehrr
Po Ehr . . . . pu ehr!
