Black Cat, 2022, 100 g

Even richer, even more energizing!

In this edition, we've once again refined the recipe, incorporating all the insights and feedback from previous batches.

Aroma

Deep, bold, and incredibly comforting—woody, chocolatey, and nutty.

Taste

Powerful, expressive, and velvety, with notes of buttery pastries, wood, and spiced chocolate, finishing with a gentle creaminess.

Effect

Energizing and focusing. A perfect choice to wake up and get into action.

Production

• Harvest: 2022, 70-year-old tea trees, Ai Lao Mountains, Pu’er County
• Fermentation: 2022, Menghai, Xishuangbanna
• Aged for 1 year, then pressed in September 2023, Yunnan, China

This cake is still young—over time, it will develop more depth and balance in both taste and aroma. Enjoy it now or store it to observe its evolution.

Format

100g cake.

Brewing

We recommend the gongfu method:

• Use 1g of tea per 20ml of water.
• Freshly boiled water, well-preheated teaware.
• First infusion: 10 seconds, then increase by 5 seconds with each steep.
• Also performs beautifully in a thermos.
