Ripe Pu-erh

This 1990s Special Grade Maojian Ripe Pu-erh offers a wonderfully clean profile, marked by a profound aged aroma and classic aged charm. Its exceptionally silky mouthfeel provides a warm, moist, and p. It leans aged, sweet and silky.

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 1990 harvest.

Starts at $34.30 from Quiche Teas, or about $0.10/g. A 300g package gets you around 50 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.60 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
