Description

Fit for a king or queen, this little gem will grace your palace with richness and joy! Grown organically in pure soil and fresh air and picked/processed in April of 2012, this high grade gong ting (royal grade) tea is a real palate pleaser. Gong ting is the smallest grade of leaf used in ripe pu’er processing and in the past was the grade reserved only for royalty. Abracadabra, you are now royalty!

Rich and earthy, with date and fruit notes, it is at once balanced and energizing, sweet and dark. This tea holds up well to 6 or 7 solid steeps gong fu style and simply must also be tried Western style as well with one long and strong steep. Welcome to the dark side!
