Our Pu’er “Smoky Whiskey” (which does NOT contain any whiskey or alcohol) is made from Yunnan large-leaf tea trees that are (大树) 40-50 years old, grown in Wuliangshan.

When you open the tea cake, a super unique aroma arises – smoky, earthy, with a hint of pine tree – giving you the feeling of opening a bottle of whiskey. When it comes to the taste, in our opinion, it is the most unique Pu’er tea, as it has such a smoky taste similar to that of whiskey!

When brewing this tea, the smoky aroma stays in the broth. Upon your first sip, you will feel astringency and even a slight spicy taste, but within 5 seconds, your saliva will start to flow and hui gan (the sweet aftertaste) kicks in. A mild wooden aroma will linger in the nose and mouth with each breath.

If you were to rate hui gan on a scale, we would rate this tea at 9 out of 10! It’s best to drink this tea in the evenings after a hard day’s work or for a simple relaxation.
