Amazing, smooth and elegant shu pu-erh stored for almost 20 year in natural Taiwanese storage.

As the name says – Mi Xiang (honey aroma) – tea brings you beautiful, balanced notes of honey, wood, herbs and incenses.

Liquor is smooth and light bodied and the main tasting note is overwhelming sweet note similar to one you can find in well aged Liu Bao or older pu-erh.

Amazing cake.

Original cake size is 380g but during the storage weight was reduced to ca. 370g.

Description

Origin: Mengla, Yiwu Yunnan, China.

Vintage: 2006, natural Taiwanese storage

Cultivar: Camellia Sinensis var. Assamica – big leaves.

Age of trees: unknown.

Temperature of water and amount of leaves: 100 C 7-8g/100ml.
Suggested brewing method: Yixing clay teapot or gaiwan of low capacity. First, you should pre-heat empty teapot/gaiwan and tea cups with boiling water. When the teapot is warmed, then you put the tea leaves in. After smelling hot and dry leaves in the pot, rinse the tea for 5-10 seconds using boiling water and afterwards pour out all the water from your pot. The process of rinsing tea leaves is often defined as a waking the tea and is very important for quality of next brewings. Main aim of waking the tea is to remove caffeine and eventual pollution from old tea aged for many years. First drinkable infusion should be very short- not more than 10-20 second. We suggest to increase brewing time for 5-10 seconds in each next brewing.
