A totally unique pu-erh experience! This tea is grown in Myanmar, then shipped to the pu-erh mountains in Yunnan, China to be processed and fermented by traditional pu-erh tea masters. All the great taste of a pu-erh, but with an all-new terroir!

 

The Ironwood is full, vegetal, deep, rich, has a touch of bite, and a vaguely metallic note similar to an Iron Goddess of Mercy. Tastes like ancient, venerable tree growth. The great thing with this tea is that it steeps at least four. Do the first cup (with a wash, meaning add just enough water to squish the leaves for a few seconds then dump it, preferably), then for a second steep, do it again for a minute. Then a third for a minute. Then a fourth, maybe for a minute and a half. You get the same flavor every single steep. This taste of raw nature will not disappoint.

 

Order quickly and judiciously, because this tea will not last. On our shelves, we mean. It'll last on yours; it's a pu-erh. But we have a very limited quantity, so order fast if you want it. It'll be gone before you know it.
