This young Sheng Pu-erh presents a robust character, hinting at the potential for deep evolution with age. Expect initial notes of fresh hay and green fruit, accompanied by a pleasant astringency that. 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 China. This batch is from the 2017 harvest.
