2021 Zodiac Ox Raw Pu-erh Tea
The Chinese zodiac is a gem of Chinese traditional culture. Chen Sheng Hao has developed the series of Pu’er tea as Chinese Zodiac since 2008.
We witnessed the first reunion of the “Chinese zodiac” series in 2019. The second round of the Chinese zodiac series Pu’er tea starts from the year 2021, the year of the Ox. The 2021 Chinese zodiac tea "Golden Ox Offering Luck" means to bring happiness and auspiciousness to tea lovers.
The Zodiac Raw Puerh is made with large-leaf arbor tree leaves. The pale yellow liquor has a high, fresh aroma with a mushroom note, and a hint of bitterness that quickly turns to huigan. Thick mouthfeel with strong and long-lasting taste.
Gongfu style (recommended)
About 5–7 g of leaf in a 100–120 ml gaiwan or small teapot, with water just off the boil (100 °C / 212 °F). Rinse once for 5–10 seconds and pour it away. Start with infusions of about 5–10 seconds and add a few seconds each round. Good leaf gives 8–15 infusions.
Mug or teapot
About 3–4 g per 250 ml, with water just off the boil. Rinse once, then steep 1–2 minutes for the first cup and a little longer for each cup after. The leaves give 3–4 cups.
Too bitter? Shorten the steep or use a little less leaf. Keep the water just off the boil.
Storage
Keep cakes in their paper wrappers, in a cardboard box, bamboo or unglazed clay, off the floor. Aim for 20–25 °C (68–77 °F) and 60–70% relative humidity, out of direct light, away from strong smells and with some airflow. For long-term aging, don't use the fridge, silica gel or airtight bags; a sealed tin is fine for the portion you are drinking now. Fuzzy or colored spots or a musty smell mean mold: don't drink it.
Free shipping on orders over $70 USD.
