Overview
Deep in the tasty reaches of the Puerh Yunniverse lies a forgotten nebula of synesthetic beauty. Thanks to the hard work of our intrepid space explorers they have rediscovered this lost treasure. We are pleased to offer access to this incredible place once again. Enjoy the journey! This blend of sheng puerh tea is composed entirely of first Spring picked tea from the 2018 harvest. This is a lush and lively tea that is a true joy to drink. It is refreshing with a mouth watering sweetness that keeps on giving. This tea is smooth and easy drinking with a nice bitterness to balance the sweetness. It will surprise you how many steeps you can get from this tea. The wrapper is a special, one of a kind, piece of marbled artwork from Violet Pitsker; The Marble Mistres. Violet uses traditional marbling techniques to create complex designs with vibrant colors and patterns.

Just for fun, if you buy a cake you get a "Forgotten Nebula" sticker too! "Forgotten Nebula is a sweet and mineral/metallic young puer with a strong rocking fruity aftertaste.
