The atypical mix of woody and persistently sweet flavors in this traditionally ripened shu puer brew a compelling cup. Reminiscent of the heady smell of woodworking or the bark on an old log, the signature forest character of Jingmai shu stands out amidst its smooth and layered flavors.
Leaves from trees of a range of ages make for a full and rich body that remains very smooth and soothing over many infusions. The addition of old-growth tree leaf material to the blend helps create that distinctive woodiness and pronounced sweetness of these young tender buds and leaves.
