2023 'Unison' Raw Pu-erh Tea
'Unison’ is a small production of some of the loftier materials from the spring, with a focus on sweet strength. Sugary, sticky fragrance, and lots of huigan (returning sweet aftertaste), with a core character of strength and thickness. Push this tea hard and the glistening exterior will reveal a diamond interior, so to speak. This raw puerh tea is a strong one—not really an every day tea, unless maybe you have no responsibilities.

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.
