This Shou Pu erh consists of medium-sized leaves from ecological plantations at 1600m in the Lincang region (China). The large leaves give a very dark infusion, fitting in perfectly with this family's nickname: dark teas. The light-textured liquor has typical notes of damp soil (humus) and minerals reminiscent of clay. The entire experience is accompanied by woody (oak), fruity (dried prunes) and subtle menthol flavours.
