An awesome Pu'er from ancient tress
Zhang Jia Wan is a village in the Yiwu mountains close to the border to Laos. This exciting tea is made of ancient tree material (gu shu, 古树). While it has the fruity characteristics of other Yiwu teas, it can show a bit bolder side after a few steeps. It starts off mildly and flowery and turns into a bitter sweet and fruity brew.
This is a very young Pu'er and it's interesting to compare it with the 2018 version of the same garden.

For all our Puerh teas we recommend Gong Fu style brewing using 5-8g of tea on 100ml water. Rinse the tea briefly and then do repeating steeps (up to 6-12) of 10-20 seconds.
