Hello All,
I just received my first shipment of Puerh (and a couple greens) tea.
I got 1/4 high grade camel breath, 1 green and 1 ripe Tibetan mushroom from Holy Mountian. I immediatly boiled some water and turned off let stop. And popped into my tuffslim thermos one camel breath button. I got about 29 buttons to the
1/4 lb. so I am guessing they are about 4g each? This is a .5 liter thermos so about 1g to 4oz of water.I don't know if any of this is a proper ratio or not. I guess time to read up some more. Nevertheless...
I let it brew in the thermos about an hour before I poured my first cup. It poured out of the thermos a nice clear medium brown liquor. Added a touch of sugar (pardon me if thats a sin :). Loved it!
After my experience with Mate, I was a little tentative. But this is emminently repeatable. I can't wait to try my mushrooms tonight. How much caffeine does this have? :) Will I get any sleep? :) Just kidding.
Any way thanks to all who provided information both to my query and also to the vast amount of information in the archives of this list.
And Mike, I don't find your site or your posts here to be commercial. I rather enjoy them and find them very informative. Thanks. Enjoy your kickback from HolyMtn. ;)
