Qing Beencha “Golden Sail” Puerh, Vintage 2005

Quantity: 357 grams

This green puerh tea cake is made with vibrant leaves, tightly packed and aged. This aging process refines the flavor by softening the grassy tones, boosting umami flavors, and bringing out rich, nutty qualities. Enjoy this unique tea as an incredible addition to your collection.

Break apart the packed leaves with a knife or pick. Rinse the leaves for a few seconds with hot water, then pour out the water. Next, steep the leaves in hot water until the brew is strong enough. Steep as many times as desired, until the leaves lose flavor.

A burnt orange colored cup has a light, nutty aroma. The flavor is bold, and woody with a lingering finish. Umami top notes lead to a light smokiness with endnotes of mahogany.
