Spring Raw Pu-erh (Other)

This Sheng Pu-erh offers a delightful combination of full-bodied creaminess with minimal bitterness, characteristic of quality small arbor material. Its aromatic profile is dominated by potent orchid . It leans floral, creamy and sweet.

Water around 95–100 °C (203–212 °F). In a mug, steep 3–5 min. For gongfu, use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–20 s steeps (10–20+ rounds). You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Rinse the leaves once with boiling water before your first real steep. It cleans off storage dust and gets the flavor going.
