Spring Jingmai

This raw Pu-erh offers a satisfying daily experience, presenting a robust character with a distinct mineral profile, reminiscent of wet stones. It delivers a balanced flavor, featuring an upfront swee. It leans mineral, sweet and astringent.

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.
