Spring Jingmai

This young 2018 Jingmai Sheng Pu-erh offers a vibrant and evolving experience. Expect bright floral and honeyed notes, characteristic of its ancient tree origins from Weng Bo. Though still developing,. It leans floral, honeyed and sweet.

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.
