    Pressing shu pu’er with wild nuo mi xiang herb is a traditional pairing that yields a stunning, deep, toasty brew. This 2019 leaf material is already cooling and almost vaporous in the aftertaste - a perfect counterpoint to the flavor of buttered popcorn, clove, black sesame and orange peel. The big leaf shu material from Yuan Cao Cha Workshop keeps the tea light and dynamic.

Wang Yanxin also recommends:

  • 'Most pu’er does become more complex over time. Astringency mellows out, darker and richer flavors come through. Textural complexities become more pronounced. Starting with an intriguing young pu’er of high quality with lots of textures and flavors at play will increase your chances of graceful aging.'
