Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
A remake of our sold out 2020 Zero Sum blend. Our original description said, "An experimental tea blend that I couldn't recreate if I tried." Well, due to popular demand, we tried. The confluence of several uncommon teas spinning together in a heady tornado. The fragrances and flavors are far out there. Notes of cream and aged tobacco with a very strong full bodied tea. Best enjoyed with gongfu tea and built to age further, though it's delicious right now. Pressed in 2023. Each cake is 200g. The cakes are in bamboo tongs, with five cakes per tong.
