Vendor Notes
This aged Yiwu Gushu Huangpian offers a comforting, mature Pu-erh aroma, leading to a thick, sweet liquor with a remarkably full mouthfeel. It provides a smooth experience with virtually no bitterness or astringency, culminating in a calming yet energizing cha qi. The Huangpian, or 'yellow flakes', from Yiwu villages, develops deeper notes with continued aging.

About This Tea
What does taste like?
This aged Yiwu Gushu Huangpian offers a comforting, mature Pu-erh aroma, leading to a thick, sweet liquor with a remarkably full mouthfeel. It provides a smooth experience with virtually no bitterness. It leans earthy, sweet and mellow.
How should I brew ?
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.
Where does come from?
Grown in Yunnan, China. This batch is from the 2005 harvest.
How much does cost?
Starts at $1077.05 from Yiwu Mountain Tea, or about $0.36/g. A 3000g package gets you around 500 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $2.16 per session. Explore more dark teas on Teadar.
