SUMMARY
Type: Raw Pu'erh Tea
Cultivar: Da Ye Zhong (大葉種)
Origin: Xishuangbanna Dai Autonomous Prefecture, Yunnan, China
A semi-aged Raw Pu'erh made from a blend of leaf material from Bulang Shan, Nannuo Shan and Mengsong. A strong and punchy raw pu'erh, brewing this tea in the morning is great way to kick start any day.
TASTING NOTES
A smooth, luscious tea with some sweet, floral and slight vegetal notes that soon give way to that signature raw pu'erh bitterness that's not too overpowering. A nice balance and contains all the elements of a great Raw Pu'erh.

STORAGE
Proper tea storage is super important. Improper storage leads to flat, flavourless and potentially weird tasting tea. So as a rule of thumb, keep your tea leaves in an airtight container (the less air inside the better) and away from heat, light, moisture and strong odours.
