‘Dethflow’ is our flagship raw puer for 2019. The material is from eastern Xishuangbanna, China, and has a very soft, sweet, and luxurious character. Very thick mouthfeel, strong huigan, and with a very well-integrated bitterness, buried beneath layers of supple silky smoothness. This tea will ramp up in strength as it ages, turning more to sweet wood and stone-fruits.
For those chasing the dragon, we find it’s quite a strongly sedating tea. If you want to find out how to get tea drunk, Dethflow is a good place to start.
A premium tea with a fairly premium price tag, but a cake we believe reflects our philosophy and approach to puer, and why it’s such a worthwhile pursuit.
The art is from our continued collaboration with Australian artist Max Prentis.
