Curated Puerh Box 0004: 06 Dayi Golden Harmonious, 2004 Xiaguan FT Red Mark...etc
Curated Puerh Box 0004 is here!
I posted it on a closed FB group and slack chat 2 days ago and sold out the initial 12 slots. Emilio and I have designed to buy another set of cakes to make it available to 24 people.
This time, I have selected a pair of iconic aged factory tea that are championed by puerh critics Cham Kam Pong (Cloud), a Mansa wild cake by Yibang Cha Ma Si and a cake from a very popular/controversial region.
Deadline: 6th January 2017
(Or earlier if all slot are taken prior to deadline)
(Run! Don’t walk!)
Estimated dispatch date: 14th Jan 2017
Cost: $80USD or $2400TWD including shipping (improved trackable parcel) to most major cities.
What’s in the box:
1)50g sample of
2006 Menghai Dayi batch 601 “Golden Harmonious Flavour 66” 666g Cake
(2006 大益金色韻象 66 餅茶)
A high-end Dayi product using aged material.
2) 25g sample of:
2004 Xiaguan FT Red Mark
(25g sample)
The most popular one of the “2004 Big 5 relic”. It doesn’t taste like a Xiaguan tea at all.
3) 30g sample of
2007 Yibang Cha Ma Si “Mansa Wild” tea
4) 30g sample of
A surprise… a 2006 big tree material cake from a hush hush origin
They are all dry stored in Taiwan.
This time, we will send the tea using Taiwan’s Chunghwa Post parcel post instead of small packet, which give you a much better tracking (as least for USPS).
PM me if you want a box. :-)
If anyone wants to split this 2 ways (I’ll send you baggies), I’d be up to doing a tea tasting in Columbus with my half. I just have far too many samples right now to get through before I can do something like this.
Thank you for all your support and people who paid early (which allow us to pay for the second sets of tea).
The some of the tea included in this box has been delivered to The Jade Leaf’s HQ and some are on its way.
It will be a lot of work for Emilio to break 4 cakes and pack 100 (25 slots x 4 different cakes) but we will be able to send the tea out on the estimated dispatch date.
Thanks again!
Once everyone has tried the tea, I will announce the identity of “secret tea” here and on Facebook group. :-)
Hi tea friends!
Emilio just informed me that most of the boxes will be sent out today.
I will able to message all of you with the tracking code today and tomorrow.
Some people have already started brewing their tea from the box!
Canada/US shipping is so fast from Taiwan!
Don’t spoiler the surprise RE: hush hush origin before everyone open the box!
Got my box! Very exciting! The Yibang smells like chocolate to me for some reason…
Will be letting the teas rest at least a few days before getting into them (realistically much longer because I suck at sipping through samples).
