“This raw puerh comes in loose leaves. The leaves are picked from wild tree thrived in Ba Da Shan. The old 6 major mountains that produced high quality puerhs.
This puerh is very well balanced in terms of bittersweet, thickness , complexity. A nice mix of floral and light fruity can be savored. Longer steeping tea is prefered for this young puerhs. It can go very stable for at least 6-7 steeps. Unlike those very strong taste puerhs, it is light and smooth. You can drink for many rounds without growing tired of the strong taste. This is one of the best options for light taste puerh drinkers." Crafted Leaf Tea website

Yunnan SourcingThis is a very green raw puerh. Light vegetal notes throughout the session. I had to push the tea a bit to get a lot of flavor out of it. I started the session with 195F water, but boiling the water and increasing the infusions from 10-20 seconds, to 20-40 seconds helped release more of those prominent vegetal notes (while testing the boundaries of the tea).
I think that the tea is soft, uninteresting. Honestly, this would be a good tea to give to a newbie; experiencing raw tea for the first time. It doesn’t get bitter, unless you REALLY work at it, like I had. It’s not astringent—which is a plus for a beginner—but, I wish that it might’ve been. I find myself relying too much on those bitter/astringent notes these days.
Anyway, it’s a nice tea, but one that I’ve outgrown, as my journey has progressed forward.
