2 Tasting Notes
I am quite fond of the Ti Kuan Yin varietal teas. This one is a lovely balance of the brightness of a green and the richness of an oolong. The tightly bundled (mostly) whole leaf unfurls with the first infusion and tolerates a longer steep time than the normal recommendations from the tea house.

Preparation
My favorite of all of the full-bodied teas at Chakra 4, this Pu-Ehr reliably yields 5 full-bodied cups before beginning to wan. I like to discard the first 10 seconds of the first steeping to reduce caffeine content, then steep 1 tsp of leaves in 6 ounces of water for each cup thereafter.
