Tibetan Tea Ya'an Zang Cha, 2019

That extra "something"

I'm a beginner to better-quality Chinese teas but I drink lots of different pu-erh varieties from Path of Cha and this one is a new favorite. It's not quite as thick & rich as my usual pu-erhs but beefier than a roasted oolong. This tea has a unique scent/taste in steeps 2-5 that I deeply enjoy, but keeps giving for 5-7 steeps. Buying more today.

Awesome zang cha. Clean, woodsy, slight mineral and extremely light fermentation/age. Perfect for butter tea! Great benefits! Awesome traditionally brewed as well!

Favorite of my friends who don’t drink tea regularly

Literally everyone I’ve shared this tea with responds with an “Oh wow, that’s really good.” It’s easy to brew (forgiving if you oversteep) easy to drink for hours, and low caffeine enough for me to be able to enjoy in the afternoon/ early evening without it impairing my sleep. Quickly becoming one of my favorites.
