  • BOLD, JUICY AND EXTREMELY DRINKABLE.

    This was the last tea featured in our 2022 Pu Er Club.  The leaves are beautiful, unbroken and very well picked; the cake was stone-pressed carefully, allowing the leaves to breathe (and age).  The assemblage is visible on the cake too.

    We rinsed this tea cake with boiling water.  The tea was delicious from the first 'drinking' steep, being more mellow than its age would suggest.  The complex rainforest notes that we've come to expect from DC are definitely present.  Compared to other DC cakes, we found much more consistency over 10 steeps in terms of mouthfeel; it is, of course, a rollercoaster ride, but one without sharp turns.
