2016 Earth Raw Pu-erh Tea
2016 Earth (地韵, Di Yun) is the strong-cha-qi cake of Chen Sheng Hao's Heaven, Earth, People, Harmony series. Chen Sheng Hao calls it the most representative cha qi tea in its range.
About the Series
The series is Chen Sheng Hao's top tier of raw pu-erh. Chen Sheng Hao sorts its raw teas into four taste profiles, and each cake stands for one: Heaven for high aroma, Earth for strong cha qi, People for a thick base and Harmony for deep yun. All four use old-arbor leaf from trees over 300 years old in Xishuangbanna. Earth, People and Harmony were made only in 2016 and 2017; after that, there was not enough top-grade leaf for them, and only Heaven continued.
Taste
Cha qi is how a tea's strength is felt by the whole body and mind, not just tasted. People describe it as strong or weak, clean or not, thick or thin. With Earth, many drinkers notice a warmth spreading through the body and a clear, refreshed feeling. Brew it slowly and pay attention between cups; cha qi is easier to notice when you are calm.
Explore the full Heaven, Earth, People, Harmony series, or see more teas from 300+ year old-arbor leaf.
Gongfu style (recommended)
5–7 g of leaf per 100 ml, water at 95–100 °C. Rinse once for about 5 seconds and pour it away. Start with 10–15 second infusions and add a few seconds each round. Good pu-erh gives 10 or more infusions.
Western style
3 g per 250 ml cup, water at 95–100 °C, steep 3–5 minutes.
Storage
Keep the cake in a clean, dry place away from sunlight and strong smells.
Free shipping on orders over $70 USD.
