The brick of Organic Puer Shu Tea (cooked) Wu Liang Legend 2021 has a soft and sweet taste, evoking notes of undergrowth. In the cup it is clear and has a beautiful bright red color. This puer shu is a Mao Cha subjected to an accelerated fermentation process. Using this process, it takes about 2-3 years to obtain a high-quality puer tea. During these years, the bitterness, the rigidity of the leaves, the smell and the flavor of mold that permeate the leaf are completely eliminated. Few, in fact, know that the perceived taste of tea is influenced not only by the quality of the leaf and the harvesting period but also by lesser-known factors such as the bacterial culture and the organization of fermentation. The Wu Liang Legend 2021 shares with most puer teas a characteristic fermented flavor, with notes of damp earth, despite having a relatively short fermentation time, starting in 2019. Our advice for this tea, being quite young, is to set it aside for at least two years to give it time to mature and age. This organic tea comes from the village of Zhengwan, in the famous autonomous province of Puer. Tasting - Sight and Smell The Shu Puer Wu Liang Legend 2021 tea appears in the form of a brick with pressed leaves of various shades of brown, from very dark brown to light chestnut. Once infused, the leaves smell of damp earth and wet wood, with hints of anise. In the cup, the color is a deep red with amber reflections, incredibly clear for a puer shu tea. Tasting Notes GONG FU CHA The first infusion of Shu Puer Wu Liang Legend 2021 tea is sweet, with pronounced hints of anise and fennel. Already with the second infusion, the body becomes denser, and we find notes of leather and almost camphor. These hints remain even in the third infusion and the subsequent ones: the notes of leather become more intense and the hints of humus and sweetness, enveloping the palate and lingering. FOR THE WESTERNER The first sip of Shu Puer Wu Liang Legend 2021 tea has as its first distinctive note that of wild fennel, followed by marked sweetness with slight hints of anise. The notes of undergrowth arrive later, with hints of damp wood and wet earth. Finally, notes of leather and strong camphor notes remain on the palate, closing in a long and sweet persistence, free of astringency or bitterness. Place of origin: Zhengwan – Puer, China. Preparation We strongly recommend infusing Shu Puer Wu Liang Legend 2021 tea using the traditional Chinese method (gong fu cha) to best enjoy these leaves. Following this preparation, you can use 4 grams of leaves (about 3 teaspoons) in a gaiwan of about 100 ml to obtain multiple infusions with different tastes. After a quick rinse of the leaves in water at 100°C, you can proceed with a first infusion of 10 seconds and, keeping the water at the same temperature, continue with many infusions increasing the time each time by 5 seconds (10 – 15 – 20 …). This tea has a longevity of about 5 infusions. For a classic preparation according to the Western style, we recommend 2 grams of leaves (about 1 teaspoon) in a 150 ml cup with water at 100°C for an infusion time of one and a half minutes. The tea can be filtered for greater ease during tasting. The indicated infusion times are purely indicative, so you can also adjust based on your personal taste. It is recommended to store the Shu Puer Wu Liang Legend 2021 tea in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight.
