Bulang

This young Sheng Pu-erh from Bakanan offers a classic regional flavor profile, combining a strapping character with an impossibly smooth and thick mouthfeel. It delivers a delightful sweet nectar, des. It leans sweet, smooth and robust.

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 from the sweet variety cultivar.
