Amazing shu cha made from old trees growing in Bulang Shan.

Stored in Yunnan mountains till 2023 in ceramic jars.

Balanced and sweet, yet powerful!

Quite low level of initial fermentation.

You will find here strong vanilla notes, mineral texture, honey sweetness, dates, jujube, raisins and some red fruits.

The smell of wodui (initial fermentation typical for shu pu-erh) is almost gone after more than 10 years of storage.

Origin: Bulang Shan, Menghai Yunnan, China.

Vintage/Harvest: Spring 2010, pressed in 2011

Tea vartietal: Camellia Sinensis var Assamica

Tea trees age: old trees

Description

Temperature of water and amount of leaves: 100 C 5-7g/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 20-30 seconds. We suggest to increase brewing time for 5-10 seconds in each next brewing.
