Bulang

This young Bulang raw Pu-erh tea presents a robust and earthy character, typical of its region, balanced with notes of dried fruits and a refreshing briskness. It promises to evolve with age, developi. It leans earthy, fruity 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.

Grown in Yunnan, China. This batch is from the 2018 harvest.

Starts at $18.99 from King Tea Mall, or about $0.22/g. A 30g package gets you around 5 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.32 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
