Feel like royalty without spending like royalty. This quality Menghai shou puer is a treat for any budget.
Like any good shou, it’s not about looking for complexity or a wide range of flavours, but about hitting the mark where it counts. That is where this tea delivers, exhibiting the right balance of smooth character with a sweet, stone-fruit sweetness. An unusual thick texture can be felt in the mouth, along with a mild rice-like flavour
Made from material originally piled in 2014, this tea has had ample time to air out, giving it an exceptionally clean taste and bright liquor, with no noticeable pile flavour.

This was from a little while ago so I’m relying on instagram tasting notes…
This is a very thick & intensely bodied shou with a strong petrichor, decaying wood, & overall ‘forest after a heavy downpour’ type of vibe – however it’s very smooth and comforting with a soft finish and underlying sweetness. There’s even a little bit of a Nuo Mi Xiang herb note (AKA sticky rice herb) that tastes wonderful wit the earthy wood character of the tea. The pop of blackberry juices adds brightness, and plays into that forest feeling, a welcome pairing!! I enjoyed this session with many blackberries, which seemed fitting with the art for this tea…
