Factory Blend

This aged raw Pu-erh delivers a bold and grounding experience, characterized by deep earthy notes interwoven with hints of aged wood and a distinct mineral character. The iron cake pressing contribute. It leans earthy, woody and mineral.

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.
