These may be tiny but these are a lot of fun. The material in these is from a handful of different high end shou puerh fermentations done in the few years leading up to 2015. The material is all Menghai area and included multiple mountains.

These are heavily compressed into a mini tuo cha shape. These are comprised nearly entirely of small and broken leaves. For a tea like this that really doesn't matter. These will taste delicious!

This is a very clean brewing tea with a pleasant earthiness. It has a thick body with a deep red liquor. It is creamy and smooth. It starts slow in the early steeps but deepens in experience through the session. There is a hint of bitterness that keeps things interesting!

Overall this is a very smooth and clean brewing shou puerh tea that can easily be a daily drinker.

Each mini is ~6 grams. You can order them in packs of 10 minis. That is 60 grams of tea.

Brewing Instructions

Use 1 or 2 minis at your preference. If your brew vessel is under 100ml use 1. If it is over 100ml use 2. Or go wild and use 3! Brew with water at or near boiling. Since these are heavily compressed give the tea 2 long rinses of around 20 seconds each. Let the tea rest for a few minutes. Start with quick steeps under 10s. With each re-steep adjust the steep time to your taste.
