Chinese Cake Tea

This is an amazing tea. It is made from green tea. Break off some of the cake put it in your tea cup then pour in hot boiling water. As you wait for the tea to cool enough to drink flavor of the tea leaves goings into the boiling water. It tastes a lot like red grape wine with an amazing good flavor. You can buy cakes online if you want to try it. Chinese cake tea, HISHI ancient shu Pu'er cake. Look at the 2 attached links.

This looks like a good tea to try sometime. I once tried a sample of Numi brand Puerh tea but never bought any.
Recently I bought a pound of Ginger Love, a Good Medicine brand bulk wellness tea. Expensive, but I love this tea. I like to mix it with Yerba Matte green tea and sometimes drink it in the morning as a coffee substitute.

Ginger Love Wellness Tea ingredients:
Ginger root, Fennel, Licorice root, Turmeric, Lemongrass, Lemon balm, Lemon verbena
