Art Tea: Alexander - 2021 Raw/Sheng Puerh
$32.88
This tea is named after the painting on the wrapping paper, “Alexander”, created by the Dutch painter Roland Carter, as it is a collaboration with this contemporary artist, the very first item of our "Art Tea" project. Although the name Alexander gives an image of "masculine tea", it is actually a tea with neutral characters that will appeal to both men and women.
The tea comes from one of the most famous Puerh regions, the Bulang Shan mountains, using selected spring harvest from wild arbors. It is a very young Raw/Sheng Puerh, nevertheless there is nothing harsh in the delicious freshness, instead, some notes of wild flowers and citrus fruits stand out in the liquor, as well as in the steeped leaves, also, with a subtle hint of incense. Our Alexander brings a well-balanced liquor among sweetness, bitterness and astringency, with very juicy flavors.
