Leo mentioned in his writings about shengcha saying that in its new form, it is TCM cold and should not be consumed by the weak stomach. I had that experience before and I can tell you that it is true. I discussed about this with a friend who is a TCM doctor and she agrees. I think it is tempting for it is light and flavorful when infused lightly. The effect can be very bad. I had serious cramps following some friends going to Mainland China for a Shengcha tasting spree. Bad idea.
