Пуэр Шу Гу Шу Шу Ча ЧКП 2012 г.

Shu Pu-erh from the city of Pu'er, 2012 harvest. The leaf was gathered from old trees and underwent wet piling of around 5 months. A tea close in character was included in the limited GUFer series. The leaves are fine, dark brown, rolled into twists. The aroma is warm and woody: dry wood, bark, paper, tobacco, sesame; in a warmed gaiwan earthy tones emerge — black soil, cellar, moss. The taste is markedly earthy: the leading notes are peat, fallen leaves, wet wood, wood-ear mushrooms; a strong infusion opens up woody astringency, shavings and oak bark; the finish is slightly nutty, with a motif of grain biscuit and walnut. Water temperature — 85–100°C. Best brewed by infusion, though it also takes well to boiling. Tones and intoxicates; cleanses the body, normalises the workings of the gastrointestinal tract and lowers cholesterol.
