Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.

Enjoy the convenience of a single-serve Pu-erh Tuo Cha, molded into a neat little cake and infused with Semnostachya Menglaensis for a subtle sticky rice aroma that complements the deep, earthy character of aged pu-erh. Each tuo cha offers a balanced cup that highlights classic fermented tea notes with a gentle, toasty sweetness, perfect when you want a focused, ritual-style brew without extra fuss. Full brewing instructions: Place the tuo cha in a teapot or gaiwan and pour boiling water over it for about 15 seconds to rinse, then discard the rinse water. Refill with 8 oz of boiling water and steep 3 to 5 minutes, adjusting to taste. When the cup is down to roughly 1/3 left, top off with boiling water to continue sipping, this re-steep approach yields 3 to 4 enjoyable infusions. Serve it on its own to appreciate the layered flavors, or pair with dim sum, light pastries, or savory snacks. Store in a cool, dry place away from strong odors to preserve the tea's aromatic profile.
