2007 12 Gentlemen YiWu Wei Zhong Wei
Pu-erh Tea by The Essence of Tea
The counterpart to the 2007 Menghai “Wei Zong Wei”, this bing is composed of leaves from Old Growth trees from Yiwu mountain. It is a careful blend of 2006 Autumn leaves and 2007 Spring leaves from a single area, producing a well rounded tea with a feeling of quality to the brew.
As ever with the 12 Gentlemen productions there has been meticulous attention to detail at every stage producing a very high quality young puerh which is designed with slow and graceful ageing in mind.
This is also an excellent ‘drink-now’ puerh, with a caramel like soup, long lasting huigan (sweet aftertaste) coating the mouth and throat, and a full, rounded flavour.
This bing is tightly pressed, and use of a tuocha pick is highly recommended to separate this for brewing. If you need one, let me know & I’ll give you one with your bing.
