Spring Yiwu

This Yiwu Early Spring Pu-erh presents a harmonious balance of floral and sweet notes, characteristic of its origin. Expect a smooth, gentle mouthfeel, with hints of fresh fruit and a lingering sweetn. It leans floral, sweet and mellow.

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 Menghai Daye cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2023 harvest.

Starts at $51.50 from Yiwu Mountain Tea, or about $0.14/g. A 357g package gets you around 60 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $0.87 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
