Ancient Pu-Erh Tuo Cha
This traditional style ripe pu-erh is a blend of vintages ranging from 2-4 years in age. These small Ancient Tuo Cha (meaning "dome shaped") pu-erh cakes are perfect for single-serving size and should be enjoyed all day with multiple infusions.
Each subsequent infusion reveals the complex personality this tea hides under its powerful earthy smell: a little sweet, a little savory, and very smooth with notes of dark mocha. A tremendously soothing tea.
Ingredients: Pu-erh tea
Origin: Yunnan, China
Caffeine: MED-HIGH
This brewed tea's dark color may suggest it would be overly strong and bitter. Instead it is a smooth, silky tea that even has umame qualities. Great on its own or with a bit of cream and sugar.
Great flavor and nose that evolves over steeps but is just a bit too mild for what I normally expect from a pu erh. Overall serviceable and enjoyable but don't go into it expecting a coffee-like pu erh experience as some provide.
