Spring Nannuo

This 2007 Nannuo Sheng Pu-erh, having matured for years, presents a complex profile of sweet floral notes, hints of aged wood, and a mellow earthy undertone, culminating in a satisfying, lingering fin. It leans floral, sweet and earthy.

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 $7.50 from NWPuerh, or about $0.25/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.50 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
