Description

Harvested from a Fengqing large-leaf species older than 200 years, this raw pu-erh cake crafted by Mr. Zhou follows the one bud with two leaf standard, and was processed using purely traditional methods. The cake is flat and round with plenty of thick buds distributed evenly throughout both the surface and interior. When brewed, the tea’s fragrance spreads slowly and expands with sweet notes of honey.

As this pu-erh is relatively young, its taste is somewhat bitter and astringent, though these quickly fade into sweetness in later steeps. Unlike other tea types, pu-erh is a very interesting variety that demands careful tasting; it will surprise you with its taste and aroma every time you drink it.
