Craft Shou (Ripe) Pu-erh made of spring 2016 material from Thai 300-500-year-old trees. Chiang Rai province, northern Thailand, 1300 meters above sea level.
Fermented in December 2017.
The dry tea smells milky, raspberry and conifer with hints of salinity. In the taste is an interesting interweaving of coniferous oily tones with raspberries and dairy. Since the 3-4 infusion, sweet woodiness and almonds appear. Aftertaste with pine and walnut tones, slight bitterness.
Maybe the best shou I know. Soft, creamy with rich spectrum of tastes and such a depth. Beautiful experience.
Of all the new boutique shou being made these days like Hai Lang Hao, Crimson Lotus, Yiwu mountain tea, this Raspberry pine is my favorite. That one is quite good and unique too. I’d like to see the Raspberry pine teas pressed into cakes or mini tuos.
My favorite of all the Pu Eh tesd
Raspberry Pine is just really cool ... and soft and tasty ... But berry notes are just super
So nice soft, sweet rasperry, milky. Can be brewed for many brews. Very pleasant ripe.
