Fancy a cup of Pu Er Tea?
October 18, 2006 by jernehhong
I’m not a Pu Er tea person, as I can easily get drunk for taking one or two sips of this so called "XO of China". But, my colleague just wouldn’t believe me and thought I was joking with him until last Tuesday when we went on an assignment for Chinese tea.
I only took one sip of the Pu Er tea from a small china cup and I started feeling a bit drowsy. A few seconds after I took a second sip, I began to have difficulty in replying the Tea House owner’s question and not to mention that I couldn’t make out what she was telling me. In the end, I have no choice but to end our conversation.
No kidding! I’m fine with Green tea and Oolong Tea but not Pu Er! The Tea House owner told me that this symptom might indicate that my body has low blood pressure and she kindly gave me a candy, but that didn’t help much. >_<
