Description
Available online only in 10 ct. packages only. Very limited quantity.
A uniquely geometric tea with a soft texture and clean, cooling, mineral character. The floral aroma is symphonic in its performance and worth the price of admission alone.
Each cube is individually wrapped in paper and is approximately 9 grams (1.5" square).
Produced on June 3, 2021, by Zeng Puyu from Middle Pacific Village, Long Yan City, Fujian. The Chinese name for the tea is Zhang Ping Shui Xian. Zhang Ping is where the tea originally came from and Shui Xian (translation:Water Immortal) is the cultivar used. Ms. Zeng’s garden is named “Huoshao Liao” (translation:Burning Hut) where she only uses organic practices.
