Ripe Pu-erh Tribute Chinese Tea Brick

This is one to purchase before it has been snapped up! Produced in the Spring of 2004 in the famous Xishuangbanna prefecture of Yunnan, it imparts a clean smooth flavor.  We have found after about the 4th infusion a sweetness is revealed.

This is a large brick, 250 grams.  It has the potential to age and develope for many more years! We recommend using a pu-erh knife to break off a small piece to infuse. Wrap the remaining pu-erh back up to enjoy as it ages!

Insider Tip: Pu-erh teas are what the Chinese consider true black teas. What we in the West call black, is referred to as red there - referring to the liquor color. Pu-erhs have a distinct flavor and are much beloved - some even invest in Pu-erh, keeping the aged cakes as an asset which can be sold for a higher value once it has aged more.

Ingredients: Pu-erh tea.

Time/Temp:
