I received this but have not gotten around to trying it yet. Have you?

I am also wondering about them.

i also got this little tuo from scott, and so far, i like it,
scott said that this is a nice everyday tea to drink,
and i drink it in the office with other office staff or during meetings,

i really dont know how to describe the flavor but i could say that it has a nice aftertaste and the aroma is nice, there is an initial taste of "mist" but i think its the case for all ripe pu...

I broke up one 100g tuo out of the tong last night, planning to try it today. But Igot too curious and brewed some last night. Resulting in a mild but unpleasant stomach ache that came and went until the last hour or so. Can't be sure it was the shu, but some Pu has given me a lesser, briefer stomach twinge in the past. Perhaps it needs to hide in a Pu cave for a couple of years. If I get very brave, I'll try it again. Later. Much later. Maybe.

Anyone else?

I got some Xiaguan mini tuos (3 gr each) from Puerhshop as part of an order today. I thought the box was worth looking at. It's in English! Haven't tasted them yet, but will report after trying one.

Okay, my stomach has been a little off this afternoon, too. Not a frequent occurance, but now think the shu probably had not much if anything to do with it. So I'll try it again when my system returns to normal.

Let us know t4texas.
