How to make Dr Puer Jingmai Gu Hua Xiang (Flower Valley) tea?
There are two methods to prepare this pu erh tea cake:
Gongfu brewing
Brew 8 gram with 120 ml of water at 100 °C. Steep for 15 seconds and add 5 seconds for each infusion.
Western brewing
Steep 4 gram with 350 ml of water at 100 °C. Apply a brewing time of 2-3 minutes and add 1 minutes for each subsequent infusion.

Preparation: I broke the cake completely, put it in a cardboard box, in a cupboard with little airflow and let it rest for a couple of weeks, before starting to drink it.
Brewing: 5.33g/80ml, 100°C, flash rinse, 15s, +5s.
Warmed-up dry leaves smell of stone fruits. When wet, woody notes, spices and a hint of smoke come out.
The liquor has a very interesting depth to it - layers and layers of exotic wood, leather, delicate fruitiness and hints of spices. It all blends in nicely and the taste profile keeps developing over more than a dozen infusions.
Together with its "Nannuo" brother that has the same qualities, this relatively cheap tea is a great introduction to aged raw pu-erh.
P.S.: I got this cake as a replacement for one that was out of stock. That's how I got to compare two different "tea mountains" - Nannuo and Jingmai are actually very close to each other - from the same producer, from the same year. The teas are almost identical.
Vores designarbejde er inspireret af kunstværket "Along the River During the Qingming Festival" af Zhang Zeduan fra Song-dynastiet. I stedet for at vise dagliglivet for folk i Kinas hovedstad (som i det oprindelige kunstværk), viser vi tedyrkningsprocessen hos bønder gennem det samme fugleperspektiv.
Når man ser nærmere på vores emballagedesign, vil teentusiaster kunne observere tedyrkningsprocessen, hvor tedyrkere plukker, tørrer, ruller og steger teblade. Teen smages derefter i en pavillon og transporteres med heste langs den 'gamle terute'.
Sammen symboliserer det traditionelle kinesiske landskab og temaet om tedyrkning arv, tradition og respekt for tedyrkernes hårde arbejde.
