Toucha Bird's Nest Tea Leaves - Vintage Pu-erh Tea
It is easy to drink lots of Pu-erh when it tastes as smooth as this Pu-erh. The tea comes as a Tuocha, a bird nest shape which is not only aesthetic and unique, but travels well, too. The leaves are of a high quality grade and are compressed into the Tuocha so that they will only get better with age. This tea is about the same grade as the loose leaf variety; in addition, it is packaged in the oldest known single serving of tea. With only a few flakes, brew a surprising dark and rich cup. Leaves are good for four steeps in boiling water. The Tuocha yields over 30 servings. If you use a large teapot, the tea will be weaker, but a good brew for novice drinkers who are unaccustomed to the boldness of Pu-erh brewed in traditional Chinese (Gongfu) style. Use full boiling water for each Tuocha and let steep 4-10 minutes to allow the nest to gently break apart. Can be steeped 2-3 times.

Almost taste like black tea. Very nice tea, but what is better than other tea is that this Pu-erh tea doesn't upset your stomach like black or green tea does to me. I am glad to have found this tea.
