Bulang

This aged Bulang Raw Pu-erh from 2006 offers a profound journey into the heart of Yunnan. Expect a robust and deeply earthy character, evolving with a lingering sweetness and a satisfyingly thick body. It leans earthy, robust 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.

Grown in Yunnan, China. This batch is from the 2006 harvest.

Starts at $2.99 from King Tea Mall, or about $0.11/g. A 7g package gets you around 1 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.66 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
