Spring Raw Pu-erh (Other)

This aged Sheng Pu-erh from Bao Shan offers a unique character, hinting at its 'old tree' origin. Expect a grounding, earthy base with potential undertones of dried fruit and a subtle, evolving comple.

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 Spring 2007 harvest.

Starts at $8.75 from NWPuerh, or about $0.30/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.80 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
