Taste Profile: Bold, Earthy, And Fragrant
A harmonious blend of earthy and floral sweetness. It is a smooth, supple pu-erh base, with a pronounced earthiness and woodiness from the aged tea which has undergone some processing.
This strong base however, is complemented with soft floral undertones of lily which adds some floral sweetness which rounds off the sonorous notes of the tea.
There is an evolution in flavours with each sip taken over multiple infusions; each taste begins to take its effect.
The floral notes take away the deep notes of the pu-erh by adding some bright traits to it making it an attractive tea even for ones who do not like complex teas such as puer. Bitterness is minimal even in a long steep and a lingering sweetness colludes with te freshness of the tea making it mildly refreshing.
What is Pu-erh Ripe Lily Tea Cake?
