2022 Bu Lang Yin Xiang Raw Pu-erh Tea
The bitterness and astringency of Bulang Mountain tea always leave a deep impression on those who have tasted it. It can be characterized by a rich, strong taste, where the bitterness unfolds and the astringency transforms. The heavy bitterness and astringency naturally take time to mellow, resulting in a strong sweet aftertaste. The aroma of Bulang Mountain tea comes in two varieties: one is a bright aroma that can be directly perceived through the bottom of the cup and the liquor; the other is a dark, restrained aroma that blends seamlessly with the liquor, embodying what we call "water-infused fragrance" (水含香), where the liquor and the fragrance are inseparable.
This "Bulang Yin Xiang" raw Pu-erh tea is crafted exclusively from single-origin leaves harvested from trees aged between 100 and 300 years on Bulang Mountain.
This tea doesn't have the greenish notes typical of young tea. Initially, it has a gentle floral-honey aroma, which after brewing becomes rich and strong, with sweet, woody and fruity notes. The fragrance is rich, harmonious, and full-bodied, allowing you to experience its refreshing and soothing throat feel throughout the entire tasting process, lasting until the final infusion.
The deep floral-honey aroma, together with a bitterness that slowly unfolds, lets you appreciate its strong, thick mouthfeel with each sip. It offers a balanced, full-bodied taste and a fine, thick texture of the brew. It combines a strong, full-bodied bitterness with a smooth texture. For tea enthusiasts who prefer a lighter flavor, it is recommended to briefly immerse the tea leaves for a swift decanting of the brew.
Dry Leaves:
Plump, sturdy and visibly downy dry leaves.
Aroma:
Rich and fragrant aroma, with a bright yellow liquor
Taste:
The taste is strong, thick and full-bodied. It has a substantial "cha qi", and the distinct characteristic of transforming from a pronounced bitterness to a sweet aftertaste is quite pronounced. It has a strong wild mountainous aroma and taste.
Gongfu style (recommended)

Western style
