Overview
We have found a few more cakes of this tea! We don't have samples available and when these cakes are gone this tea is gone! This dark puerh is a real heavy hitter. This bud heavy blend will brew thick and dark in the early steeps and is sure to satisfy. We intended this blend to be a followup to our super popular "2008 Bulang Imperial Grade". The material is from Simao and was picked and processed in 2015. It was pressed in the Spring of 2016. It has been aging in Kunming since 2016. Brewing Instructions This is a generous tea and can be brewed more than 10 times. Use 5-10 grams of leaves and brew with 75-150ml ( 2.5-5oz ) of water at or near boiling. Rinse twice for a few seconds each. Start with quick steeps under 10s. With each re-steep adjust the steep time to your taste.
