/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Looking around here, on facebook, on discord there are so many armchairs experts that make grand theories on teas they never drank. And they never tried real gushu or real old puerh, never been to asia, never drank with more experts drinkers. They think the modern productions full of pesticide are gushu and that 1980s cakes should cost $20 and that loose tea is definitely "puerh from the 1950s".
Typical of today's society, a lot of noise and extremely little substance. So many wrong views and the more confidently stated, usually the more wrong they are.

If one wants to learn puerh there's no other way than trying for oneself various teas, ways of brewing, teaware, and ideally drink with others that have some experience.
