Spring Yiwu

This 2021 Longdui Guoyoulin raw pu-erh offers a thick and intense brew, characteristic of its unique terroir within the Yiwu region's state-protected forest. Expect a powerful tea with a deep, vibrant. It leans earthy, intense and astringent.

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 2021 harvest.

Starts at $195.00 from Teas We Like, or about $0.55/g. A 357g package gets you around 60 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $3.30 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
