Overview
Pairing: shortbread, fresh fruit, or mild cheeses
Made from huangpian (yellow leaf) gushu material from Mansa, this tea offers a smooth and sweet experience that contains much of the fragrance and texture of its fresh growth counterpart, but at a fraction of the price. This high value tea is excellent for those seeking out a less aggressive and uncomplicated raw puer. While less complex up front, it still produces a nice texture in the mouth and chaqi/energy. Our experience with this tea since 2016 has also shown that in addition to daily drinking, it has strong storage potential, becoming sweeter as the years go on. $0.11/gram
