Unique combination of young ancient tree leaves (gu shu 古樹) and matured  tree leaves (lao shu 老樹), which undergo natural drying and hand rolled into a dragon ball shape.

 

Since spring 2019, the dragon balls have been aging under our storage conditions of 60% humidity - optimal and necessary conditions for aging Pu'er. With an average weight of 8 grams, the balls gradually unfurl into leaves depending on temperature and steeping time, requiring skillful brewing by experienced hosts. Temperature too low will not open the pearls, while overly long steeping can eventually overbrew the tea. Advanced and fine tea with a high percentage of theine, thick texture and notes of fresh citrus and dried fruit. Slightly cloudy orange liquor.

 

A custom made blend made by order exclusively for ho yum tea. Recommended for drinking in the first part of the day, from spring to autumn.
