2017 Kuzhu Shan Sheng Pu Erh "Dragon Pearl"

A raw, unfermented Pu Erh tea, also known as "green" Pu Erh. This Pu Erh tea comes from ancient tea trees (Gushu) in Jinggu Yunnan Province. Pu Erh tea from Jinggu is famous for its sweetness and gentleness. This is also the reason why most of the Yunnan white teas like Moonlight White and Yunnan Silver Needle come from Jinggu.

This Sheng Pu Erh is characterized by fruity nuances of lotus leaves. Slight sweetness meet gentle, tart notes. The smell of the hot tea leaves alone is an unforgettable pleasure.

 

Preparation of Sheng Pu Erh pearls

This Sheng Pu Erh should go with the Gong Fu Brewing Method be prepared to get the maximum enjoyment out of the noble tea balls.

1. Rinse a pearl with boiling water in a gaiwan or teacup, pour the water away after 3 seconds. This infusion is not for drinking, just rinse the tea and loosen the pearl.

2. Pour the boiling water over the pearl and count up to 20 seconds if you want a smooth and sweet tea, but up to 40 seconds if you prefer a strong tea. Pour the tea into a cup to enjoy.

3. The above process can be repeated for the later infusions, only that the steeping time should be much shorter (5-15 seconds), as the leaves now loosen and the tea can be ready to drink very quickly. After about 5 infusions, the time can be longer again (20-40 seconds), as the leaves are now weak after many infusions.
