2014 Wuliang Mt Early Spring, Shujian Tea Co.
$7.92
Shujian Tea is a top-tier purveyor of puerh tea located in Kunming, the provincial capital of Yunnan. Their Dragon Pearl series is of superior quality from select ancient trees. They call this series Xiao Yao Dan, referencing the first chapter from the eponymously named classic attributed to the legendary Daoist philosopher Zhuang Zi. Xiao Yao evokes a sense of freedom, a release from the constraints of life.
Usually the Shujian Dragon Pearls can be held up as the gold standard for each terrior. This Wuliang Mt selection is an exception. Instead of the typical mediciney, tobaccoey deep body, this Shujian offering is more reminiscent of light vegetal and floral gentility of the Yiwu region. The flavour builds progressively through each infusion, remaining light and pleasant. It is a high quality selection without any hint of bitterness that yields numerous infusions. Hand-picked and crafted. Think Yiwu with this one.
