A tiny compressed cake of rich black puer tea. Each 5g cake makes one pot of tea and can be infused easily 5-30 times before losing flavor, depending on method of infusion. A full-leaf tea plucked in 2016 that is full-bodied, rich and earthy. Happy sipping!

Ingredients: Cooked puer tea
Approximately 60mg of caffeine per cup
Steep at 212° F or 100°C for 1-3 minutes.

This is a really nice puer and the mini cakes are just so fun. This is a reorder for me for sure.
Incredible re-brew-ability (is that a word? it should be a word)! I've never actually managed to keep track of how many steeps I get out of a single cake. I always lose count and contentedly keep brewing. Comfy-cozy flavor and such a pretty color too!
what can't she do? absolutely full of flavor. dark like a stout beer. im coming back for more of this. (also, unrelated, but continue making LOTR themed teas please, I was too late to snag one this round, but I will be back for them once they become available. they're nearly all sold out.)
I know this is probably a sin in some circles but my partner wanted to see what this would taste like with a dab of condensed milk, like Vietnamese coffee. I adore this puerh on its own obviously, but if you're curious... I recommend giving it a try, lmao. transforms this into basically a hot cocoa.
if you're a tea newbie don't be intimidated by the cake format, please give it a try!!! try it! change your life!
This is a wonderful, warm, dark tea. I think it might be the first time I've really understood calling a tea 'chewy', but it's delightful to drink.
I have a standing subscription for the Shou Tuo Cha. I've gone through a great number of these little nests and they never disappoint. The earthy, mossy flavor is deep and delightful.
