2017 'Vector' Raw Puerh Tea

'Vector' is a raw puerh tea made from a blend of tea material grown across various parts of Xishuangbanna in Yunnan, China.

This is an ideal tea for everyday drinking and it represents value for money due to the use of some obscure material that is not (yet) subject to fame or hype.

This raw puerh has a medium body and not too much bitterness, with a good measure of sweetness especially in long, late steeps. It's an approachable entry point for people new to raw puerh tea, and solid enough for jaded teaheads to drink with abandon (or to stow away and age for drinking enjoyment in the years to come).

This particular tea is compressed slightly tighter than our other productions - the use of a tea knife is recommended.

2017 spring and autumn tea material produced in Yunnan, China.

200g per compressed cake, with 5 cakes per traditionally wrapped bamboo tong. 25g samples are cut or broken from the cakes and sealed into bags.

  • 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.
