2007 Special-Grade Loose Cooked Pu'er
Originally, Pu'er was the principle commodity along the famous ancient tea trading route, and, with the gradual deepening of Chinese tea culture, Pu’er quietly spread across the globe. The standard dim sum complement, Pu’er has been rediscovered in the West for its health and dieting properties, in addition to its great taste.
Special-grade pu'er is made up mainly of the highest quality leaf buds, while producing the most delicate infusion imaginable from a loose pu'er. The flavors and aroma are so complex and especially rich that a lot of attention must be put on the steeping method and style. While not too intense a flavor at all, the robustness of the infusion will certainly mellow out even further as this tea is aged. For those looking for an special quality cooked pu'er experience, this tea will never disappoint.
