Ripe Pu-erh

This dark from Yunnan, China offers a distinctive drinking experience. This shu Pu-erh blend presents a delightful berry sweetness balanced by a remarkably smooth body. Subtle, fleeting aromas of sandalwood emerge, making it a comforting and excellent choice for a daily . It sits in the "Berry" and "Sandalwood" and "Smooth" flavor families, so expect a cup that leans berry and sandalwood and smooth.

Aim for water around 95–100 °C (203–212 °F). Western style: steep for 3–5 minutes in a mug or teapot. Gongfu style: use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–20 s steeps (10–20+ infusions) for multiple short steeps — this way you can taste how the flavor evolves. Give the leaves a quick rinse with boiling water before your first real steep — it wakes up the flavors and removes any storage dust.

This dark is grown in Yunnan, China. This particular batch comes from the 2020 harvest.
