Details Cakes, bricks and tuocha. You thought you had already owned all the shapes. You dont. Add this unique tuocha in a lovely pumpkin shape to your tea cabinet. This pumpkin pu erh is made from high quality leaves including many small buds. The use of tea buds is intentional, as they change in a pumpkin like golden orange colour through aging. The first pumpkin shaped teas in history where offered as a tribute tea, hence the word tribute in the name. This product is aged in dry-storage. The compression level is somewhat less tight than other Xiaguan tuocha, resulting in a more uniform and faster aging. The taste is remarkably fresh with a sweet after taste. There’s a more apparant transformation of flavour throughout the steeps, relative to other sheng pu erh. The brewed leaves look tender and bright.
