Spring Raw Pu-erh (Other)

This aged raw Pu-erh tea resin offers a concentrated experience of depth and sweetness. Expect rich, earthy undertones balanced by hints of dark fruit and a lingering, smooth aftertaste that evolves w. It leans earthy, sweet and woody.

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 2013 harvest.

Starts at $11.50 from Yunnan Sourcing, or about $0.33/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.98 per session. Compare dark prices across vendors on Teadar.
