Tasting notes

Raw Puer Bingdao 2016 is grown in Lincang, Yunnan, from Menghai Daye bushes and pressed and left to age. This is a 2016 lot, aged since it was made.

In the cup it reads floral and stone-fruit, with a heavy roast and medium caffeine. Brew 6g in 120ml of 100°C water for 15–20 seconds, and the leaf will give eight to ten good infusions.

We buy this lot direct from the people who make it and name the village it comes from. Nothing is blended across farms, and nothing is held in a warehouse overseas — the tea is packed at origin and shipped in small batches.

Brewing guide

Puer needs a full boil and patience. Rinse once, then steep short and build up. Ripe puer opens faster; raw puer rewards longer sessions and improves across many infusions.
