2015 Chunrong White Tea Cake

2015 Chunrong White Tea Cake

First off, I am new to Pu-erh teas, so this opinion is that of noob, as my experiences with Pu-erh are limited. This tea was recommended by The Chinese Tea Shop’s “Ask the tea wizard” software/AI. Being new to this type of tea, I was looking for lighter Pu-erh teas to try, rather than jump straight into the stronger Pu-urh’s. This recommendation really hit my target. The taste was rather complex with no astringency I could notice. The aroma gave a sense of a nice earthy forest, with a strong note of honey and some floral notes as well. The feel was nice and mellow, with a very long pleasant finish. Over all a nice pu-erh for a noob like me. Oh, and I used 195F/90C water. Looking back at the description in The Chinese Tea Shop’s website I will try increasing the water temp to 203F/95C the next time I brew this.

Aged Chunrong White

This is a beautiful Aged White. It will give many, many steepings, has great taste and strong color. It was recommended to me by a good Tea friend and I will recommend it to others in the same way. Good price for the quality as well.

Exceptional

The mouth feel is so silky. Wonderful aged notes across a rich honey body. Tastes even more aged than 2015, the depth of flavor is unbelievable
