2022 'Exotic Other' Raw Puerh Tea

After its inaugural pressing in 2019, 'Exotic Other' finally returns to our lineup.

As one of our personal all-time favourite raw puerh teas, we - admittedly reluctantly - held off pressing this tea again until the conditions were right. Luckily for us (and you too), 2022 was the year.  

In simple terms, we'd say this tea is the epitome of sweet and strong. Punchy fragrance, a pleasant bite that treads the line between bitter and sweet, and heapings of sticky, syrupy sweetness to top it off, especially in the aftertaste. 'Exotic Other' is a tea that sticks in your throat and mind long after the session has ended. It leaves a potent impression in the body too; so be careful drinking this one when you've got stuff to do. 

In our opinion, this tea encapsulates some of the best of what Yunnan has to offer — old-growth tea forest material with a very particular character. If you're after a tea that determines the trajectory of the rest of your day, this one's for you.

  • Use boiling water (100C). 

    We recommend using approx 1g of tea per 15ml of water for gongfu-style brewing in a teapot or gaiwan. Rinse the leaves once and then brew as usual. You can re-steep the leaves several times until there's no flavour left.

    For Western-style brewing in a larger teapot, use approx 5g tea per 100ml of water. You can re-brew the leaves a few times.

    To brew direct in a mug, use 1-2g of tea in the bottom of the cup, fill to top with boiling water, and drink once cool. Re-fill the cup with more water when you've drunk 1/3rd of the tea. Repeat until there's no more flavour left.

  • All of our teas are suitable for long-term storage and ageing.

    Keep your tea away from sunlight and strong smells, and somewhere with stable climate conditions.

    You can keep it sealed inside the re-usable bag the tea comes in, or another non-porous container.
