Tan Hua Inc.

Floral with a slight bitterness and sweet aftertaste. The aroma and flavor are complex and remind me of ginseng, licorice, floral herbs, and sweet hay.

I bought this raw pu’er cake from a Chinese medicine shop near my local Asian market (Tan Hua Inc). The owner was kind and recommended it based on my taste preferences. The shop also hosts tea tastings and carries a variety of teas I’m excited to try in the future.
