About this tea

This 2017 Lincang ripe Pu-erh uses tender Gongting-grade material. The small buds and first leaves are wet-pile fermented before pressing into a 400g cake.

Dry storage in Xi’an is part of this tea’s history. Its appeal today is the combination of a silky texture, caramel sweetness and deeper woody notes. The golden tips remain visible in the dark cake.

The 30g sample lets you explore several sessions before choosing a full cake. A seven-cake stack is also available; the selected option above determines the amount you receive.

Tasting notes

  • Aroma: Aged wood, earthy notes and a hint of dried plum
  • Taste: Caramel, dark honey and dates, with cedar and cocoa undertones
  • Body & finish: Silky, lightly oily and full, followed by lingering sweetness
  • Liquor: Clear amber, deepening with stronger infusions

A good match for drinkers who enjoy sweet, woody and earthy ripe Pu-erh. Expect a deeper fermented character rather than the fresh florals of young raw Pu-erh.

Brewing guide

Gongfu

  • Tea / water: 5–7g / 100ml
  • Temperature: 95–100°C / 203–212°F
  • Rinse: 15–20 seconds; discard
  • First infusion: 10–15 seconds
  • Second infusion: 15–20 seconds
  • Following infusions: Add about 5 seconds each round, adjusting to taste

Loosen a portion gently with a tea pick. Porcelain, ceramic or glass teaware works well; a clay pot is optional. Drain fully between infusions. A fresh portion can yield around 8–12 infusions; continue while the flavor remains enjoyable.

Storage

Keep the cake wrapped, at a stable room temperature, away from dampness, direct sunlight and strong odors. Avoid refrigeration and check the storage space periodically.
