Belonging to the post-fermented tea category (Hei Cha), this tea is an artisanal ripe (shou) Pu-erh cake renowned for its smooth, earthy depth and mellow sweetness.
💡 Tea Master’s Awakening Tip:
For the best flavor, gently pry open the outer edges of the cake by hand upon receiving it, and transfer the loose pieces into an unglazed clay or breathable tea canister. Allow the tea to rest and aerate for 2 to 4 weeks before brewing—this awakens the leaves, smooths out any storage notes, and unleashes its rounded, velvety profile.

✨ Connoisseur’s Tip: Awakening the Tea (醒茶)
Gently pry apart the edges of the cake by hand and store the loose chunks in a clean tea canister. Allow them to breathe and rest for 2 to 4 weeks before steeping. This airing process softens the profile and unlocks a richer, silky-smooth infusion.
