A beautifully aged puerh from Yi Wu with a distinctive silky and vaporous mouthfeel and sweet tobacco and sandalwood flavour.

On infusion, this puerh produces a lovely golden red liquor with a quenching and refreshing flavour and a vaporous mouthfeel characteristic of the best Yi Wu puerhs.

We recommend using between 5 and 8g per serving for this tea. Traditionally, the first infusion rinses and "wakes up" the tea and is then discarded. As with any quality puerh, this tea can be infused 7-10 times. Each infusion should last between 20-30 seconds or according to individual taste.

To break off pieces from a cake, use a letter opener or similar shaped knife. Insert the knife or letter opener into the cake and gently loosen and lift a piece off. The aim of breaking the cake in this way is to keep as many leaves intact as possible.
