Puerh Paste - Glenn McKenna

„

the creation of Puerh Paste from within Yunan Province, China. basically, it's similar to making hash or hemp oil. they brew the tea, then continue to sift it through smaller and smaller sized hole mesh bags until the final mixture is a paste. seems to me if there's a direct way to go tea infusion, this might be it.

„Bĭng: The tea cake itself. Tea cakes or other compressed pu'er can be made up of two or more grades of tea, typically with higher grade leaves on the outside of the cake and lower grades or broken leaves in the center. This is done to improve the appearance of the tea cake and improve its sale. Predicting the grade of tea used on the inside takes some effort and experience in selection. However, the area in and around the dimple of the tea cake can sometimes reveal the quality of the inner leaves.“
