Basic Information

This 200g Organic Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake is made from premium-grade tea leaves grown in the pristine mountains of Pu-erh City, Yunnan Province. Free from pesticides, chemicals, and additives, it has passed the four major international organic certifications: USDA (United States), EC (European Union), JAS (Japan), and China Organic. Fewer than one in a thousand tea plantations in China have achieved this rare distinction, guaranteeing exceptional purity and quality.

The tea offers a rich, mellow taste with a pronounced floral aroma. It is particularly suitable for long-term aging, allowing its flavors to develop greater depth and complexity over time. The cake is pressed using a new technique that makes it easy to break apart by hand while preserving the shape and integrity of the buds and leaves.

Crafted by Yang Jingyong, a master’s degree holder in tea science, this tea reflects a deep knowledge of traditional and modern tea-making methods. His expertise ensures a tea of outstanding character—both in flavor and craftsmanship. This tea cake is a true representation of Yunnan’s rich tea heritage and a must-have for serious tea drinkers and collectors.

Steeping Guidelines

Traditional Gongfu Style


Use a Gaiwan with a tea-to-water ratio of 1:25. Brew with freshly boiled water at 100°C (212°F). Do not cover with the lid. Pour water in a thin, steady stream directly onto the tea ball. Once the tea begins to open up, pour out the liquor right away—no need to let it steep. The first infusion can be consumed. For the second infusion, avoid pouring water directly onto leaves. Again, do not let the tea steep—pour out the liquor immediately. After each infusion, make sure to pour out all the tea completely to avoid bitterness or astringency.
