About This Tea
What does Menghai Ripe Pu-erh taste like?
This premium Menghai Ripe Pu-erh boasts a bold and powerful character, offering a thick, almost chewy soup. It presents a lively mouthfeel with a light bitterness, reminiscent of a high-quality raw pu. It leans earthy, robust and velvety.
How should I brew Menghai Ripe Pu-erh?
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.
