2024 'A Flash And Then The Quiet' Raw Puerh Tea

The return of our budget bitter hitter; a classic Menghai style, powerful, punchy blend with quite a lot of bitterness that'll increase as it ages. That extra bitterness brings with it a matching huigan (returning sweetness) as a reward for your patient steeping. If that wasn’t enough, this tea has quite an energy kick to match. Either way, this tea will make you feel something. 

One of our most aggressively priced teas of all time, thanks to multiple years of going off the beaten path and believing in the value of the material and environment, rather than the fame of the village. Grab a tong and thank us in 10 years.

  • 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.
