250 gram Mandala Silver Buds Raw 2011

Pu-erh Tea by Mandala Tea

From the same village that we procured our 2008 cake from, these silver buds are fresh and just as wonderful!

2011 spring picked leaves in a 250 gram cake!

We hear from both raw tea afficionado’s and newcomers to raw tea, alike and are so excited by the feedback and the sales of this tea that we will commission another pressing of this.

This has become a favorite tea for many brewed in the tea thermos and tastes great even at temps well below boiling. We find the sweetness and slight smokiness of it so enjoyable and never tire of this tea. One evening, while entertaining guests, I prepared this tea gong fu style in a gaiwan and used a gallon of water before we called the tea exhausted! That’s a whole lotta tea value – cup after cup after cup.

Not sure about buying an entire cake? Opt for the one ounce sample and give this tea a whirl.
