2024 Kunlu Shan "Wild Ride" Sheng / Raw Puerh Tea

These days it just seems like we're on a rollercoaster that you can't get off of. We are just leaves on the wind. We might as well enjoy ourselves! This tea is how you do that. This is a custom blend of big tree and small tree material from the top of Kunlu Shan. Kunlu Shan rarely disappoints and this cake is no exception. This material was picked and processed in the Spring of 2024 and aged for a year as maocha. Even still it has a noticeable young sheng essence. It is fresh, clean, and vibrant. The aromas are stonefruit, dried plums, and sugar coated hawthorn. This is a juicy tea with a medium body. It has a present bitterness but it is balanced. There is a very good aftertaste that builds through the session. This is a refreshing tea that brews easily but can get a little rowdy if you push it. Prefecture: Pu'er / Simao Elevation: 1700+m Wood Fired Hand Rolled Direct Sun Dried Single Varietal Spring Material Instead of traditional samples made from the cakes we opted to press this material into dragon balls as well. If you want to sample the material grab a set of dragon balls. Brewing Instructions Use 5-10 grams of leaves and brew with 75-150ml ( 2.5-5oz ) of water at or near boiling. Rinse once for a few seconds. Start with quick steeps under 10s. With each re-steep adjust the steep time to your taste.
