Ye Sheng Ya Bao (Wild Tea Buds), AA, 2025

Exotic spring buds from wild Yunnan pu-erh trees. They resemble dense cones with glossy scales. The clear infusion imparts a vibrant botanical aroma with notes of fir needles, resin, and citrus. The flavor is juicy and buttery, filled with hints of wild lingonberry, lime zest, and menthol, leading to a long, fresh finish. Temperature: 85–90°C Ware: thick-walled glass, porcelain Tip: Brewing at a slightly higher temperature will highlight the pine-resinous aroma and buttery texture of the infusion.
