SUMMARY
Type: Ripe Pu'erh Tea
Origin: Menghai, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China
Citrus, earthy, woody
Ripe Pu’erh tea that’s been stuffed inside a dried tangerine peel. The citrus of the tangerine peel balances perfectly with the rich earthiness of the Ripe Pu’erh, making this a thick, warming yet also refreshingly fruity tea to drink.
TASTING NOTES
Earthy and smooth, with a distinct citrus note that cuts through, yet still gives a thick, luscious mouthfeel and sweet aftertaste.

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.
