A private reserve ripe from Da Xue Shan which brings together all that I love in Shu PuErh - mineral, creams, dried fruits, attics and forests.
This ripe PuErh is one of my treasures not because it is the expensive or big-name teas in my collection. I love it because it is my go-to ripe when I want to enjoy all of the flavours that I adore in Shu PuErh and has a bright and perky quality.
This is a 2021 Ripe PuErh from the Big Snowy Mountain (Da Xue Shan) and it brings that bright Lincang energy to the cup.
The aromatics meld the the joys of shu - attics and cellar, forest floor and autumn leaves, charred casks and herbal dispensaries all made indulgent with chocolate, caramel, rising dough and dried fruits.
It is a full pallette of ripe aromatics and taste. Clean and forward without any funky mustiness.
The tea is digestif as all ripes should be but also has a brighter energy. It is the perfect daytime ripe.
