2015 First Flush Ripe Shu Pu-erh Tea Dragon Balls

This tea comes from the well-respected Run Yuan Cang, a Menghai-based producer renowned for its premium Pu-erh craftsmanship. Harvested during the first flush of spring 2015 and carefully aged for ten years, the leaves are hand-rolled into convenient dragon ball shapes. A decade of natural aging yields a smooth, velvety texture and a rich, mature aroma. The “first spring” leaves — the most nutrient-dense of the year — provide the foundation for a mellow, full-bodied infusion. Each pre-portioned 7g dragon ball eliminates the need for measuring or breaking apart compressed tea. Simply steep one ball per session to enjoy a refined cup of aged ripe Pu-erh — whether at the office, on a business trip, or while traveling.  Click here for steeping instructions.
