Vendor Notes
This unique Raw Pu-erh opens with a noticeable bitterness that gracefully evolves into a nuanced sweetness as the session progresses. The tea's profile is beautifully intertwined with the distinct, woody notes imparted by its traditional bamboo pressing, culminating in a heavy, syrupy body when brewed. It's a delightful tea to enjoy now or to age for further development.
