Shu Pu Erh Gu Shu Jin Ya, АА, 2016

Aged Shu Pu Erh made from purple raw materials from old trees.

Taste and aroma

The aroma of dry leaves is restrained, with light notes of prunes and cherry wood. The infusion is dark, almost opaque, with a viscous, velvety taste. An unusual combination of flavours: the sweetness of hazelnuts and cherries mixed with the mild bitterness of wood and apple seeds. 

Effect

The tea clears the mind and vision, gently filling you with energy, warmth and the desire to move.
