Description
Tou Chun Ya is a raw (Sheng) pu’erh tea from the Menghai region of Pu’erh, in Yunnan province. It is crafted by carefully selecting the first tender plump buds from the spring season. Raw (Sheng) Pu'erh tea has unique characteristics, as it is unfermented it retains abundant raw substances such as tea polyphenols. Tou Chun Ya’s dry leaf is plump and covered with delicate silvery “hairs”, indicating both its spring picking and high quality. Once steeped, the tea releases a golden green liquor that has a fresh sheng (raw) pu’erh aroma. At first sip, you will appreciate the characteristic bitterness of raw pu'erh, that stays on the tip of the tongue for a short while and then mellows into lasting sweetness and a strong cha-qi. Enjoy Tou Chun Ya, a pu’erh that is sure to delight. |
