I can see why it's not everyone cup of tea, but pea soup with some smoked meat in it and some sweetened lapsang warms you up like nobody's business. I recently bought some Pu Ehr and that stuff literally smells like horse dung. It's tasty and all, but is it supposed to smell like that? I mean it is fermented plants in the end so maybe it makes sense.

DurianGray posted:I know the pu ehrs I've had have all had a pretty strong 'barnyard' aspect to them so I wouldn't say it's entirely out of place. Is it a specifically fecal smell, or more of a "I just walked through a horse stable in general" smell? The latter is more what I would expect/be comfortable with. I grew up in the country though, so farm smells mostly just remind me of home. Yeah, it's the same smell as a stable. It doesn't smell like poo poo or anything, if anything the odor is pretty pleasant. Still I sure was surprised by it since when dry it didn't really have a smell.

From what I understand the oxalate content of green tea is much lower than that of black tea.
