2023 'Labyrinth' Raw Puerh Tea

‘Labyrinth’ is a full-fat raw puerh tea at an easy price for hard times.

The tea is a mixture of 2022 and 2023 spring maocha we banked up from some of our favourite dank little nooks of undervalued tea forest across southern Yunnan. The tea is fairly punchy and strong, offering an approachable potency without straining your budget. The material comes from clean and biodiverse growing environments, and will reward you steep to steep as you begin from initial pleasant bitterness that transforms into lingering sweetness.

If you're just starting out or interested in exploring what makes raw puerh tea worthwhile, we recommend this tea. If you're already knee-deep and need a reliable companion to match your drinking pace or ageing aspirations, 'Labyrinth' is a worthwhile investment.

    • 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.
