Raw (Sheng) pu-erh Chun Yun Gu Cha "Spring Melody", aged, 2006, 357g

Aged Sheng Pu-erh Tea from Tea Trees

Description: Fully mature Sheng Pu-erh without hints of greenness, mustiness, or cellar-like odors. Stored for 17 years in a warehouse with an ideal, controlled humidity balance, which largely defined the character of this tea.

Aroma: Honey-dried fruit, tobacco, camphor, complex.

Taste: Soft, clean, rounded, velvety. The first cups reveal notes of plum, dried fruits, and spicy herbs. These evolve into camphor and even tobacco notes with a honeyed undertone as the tea continues to open. No sharpness—strict and noble.

Effect: Meditative, noticeably intoxicating. It immerses you completely in its flavor palette.

Production: 2006, Menghai County, Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China.

Format: 357 grams cake.

Brewing Instructions: Use boiling water for brightness, moderate astringency, and powerful effect. Use 5 grams of tea per 100 ml of water, and brew in a gaiwan or Yixing teapot.
