This raw Pu-erh from the high-altitude gardens of Baka presents a lively character with a vivid fragrance, reminiscent of the Bingdao area. Expect an initial moderate bitterness, gracefully transitioning into a pleasant sweetness and a light astringency.

About This Tea
What does Baka taste like?
This raw Pu-erh from the high-altitude gardens of Baka presents a lively character with a vivid fragrance, reminiscent of the Bingdao area. Expect an initial moderate bitterness, gracefully transition. It leans fragrant, bitter and sweet.
How should I brew Baka?
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.
Where does Baka come from?
Grown in Yunnan, China. This batch is from the Spring 2021 harvest.
