  • Raw PuErh Tea of the Year 2017

  • Rank

    In yixing an apple juice smoothness. And slightly candied/ honey sweetness.

For the ultimate boxset of Monocle Boss take a peak at our Monocle Boss Experience.

A gorgeously schizophrenic tea combining zesty fruit and seasalt air brightnotes, a sweet floral and creamy toffee middle and deeper leather and library grounding flavours.

Gushu PuErh made from ancient arbor trees in Pasha with a circumference of between 80 and 115cm. This estimates the age of tea trees between 300 and 500 years old although there is no official certification for ageing these tea trees.

This tea is very bud heavy and even the leaves have a thick sheen of tea hairs. We recommend that you brew unfiltered to get the maximum syrupy texture of this Gushu PuErh.

WARNING: This is a very rushy tea and can get you tea drunk. Please drink responsibly :)
