An incredibly fantastic raw Pu-erh made from Wild Pu-erh tree leaves that have a dark purple color. This 野生茶 (Wild Tea) is naturally dark in color, and is heavy in anti-oxidants and catechins.
Ye Sheng "野生“ varietal aka “Camellia sinensis (L.) Kuntze var. assamica (J. Masters) Kitam.” is a primeval varietal that pre-dates Camellia Sinensis var. Assamica and is a naturally occuring non hybridized varietal. It’s potency in cha qi arises from it’s unadulterated nature. It is naturally bug repellent, and grows wild in the forests of Yunnan at an altitude of 1600-2200 meters.
The quality of the leaves and the meticulous processing ensures excellent storage and aging potential. The infused liquor is bright with a golden yellow hue. There is strong full taste in the mouth and a warm stimulating feel in the mouth and body after drinking this tea.
When young this tea can be quite bitter, but with just 2 to 4 years of age the bitterness will fade an transform into something delicious and complex.
This year’s version is particularly bud heavy! It adds a bit of sweetness for sure!

Yunnan SourcingPretty nice. Definitely still has a bitter edge to it, kind of like bitter grapefruit. The flipside of the bitterness is a nice grapefruit/citrusy sweetness. This also has the cannabis-like flavors I’ve noticed in the other purple tea varieties I have tried. I still prefer the Wild Tree Purple Moonlight White Tea from Jinggu, but this would be nice on occasion.
