Sacred Peak on Nostr: 1 bing (disc), 1 unmarked brick green (fermented) pu-erh (polei/bolei in Cantonese) ...
1 bing (disc), 1 unmarked brick
green (fermented) pu-erh (polei/bolei in Cantonese) tea
{erh is pronounced er as in her, not air as in hair}
green pu-erh is fermented, the cooked kind is a different process and doesn't develop the same over time. neither is 'green tea' like dragon well or sencha, green pu-erh refers to the natural uncooked process of fermentation. cooked pu-erh is heated up to rush it and suffers the same fate as other rushed products, lack of depth.
(both of these are pre 2000, its sadly 99% fakes after that)
the bricks were bought a long time ago by Mm-Tai (Mrs. Ng) from a warehouse in China. she would often mix a chunk of one of the green bricks with some cooked pu-erh. the green bricks are as hard as a brick, and therefore difficult to open (break into chunks)
i have 2 cupboards full of these. they ripen with age. some i don't drink yet because they should be 30-40+ years old first. pu-erh tea improves with age like some wines that can be kept for a long time.
i don't know who gets the collection when i croak 🤣
