About Factory

 

Famous Pu’er tea expert Zou Jia Ju founded Zouji Pu’er Tea, which Yunnan Yongxin Tea officially launched as a brand in 2006.

Zou Jiaju served as the general manager of Yunnan Tea Garden Group Co., Ltd., during which he supervised the production of the first batch of “Zouji Pu’er” products, laying the technical foundation of the brand.

The brand currently focuses primarily on producing Shu Pu’er tea. And they promote it as the “healthiest” option for tea drinkers.

 

The Tea

The tea consists of a blend of various leaf grades—primarily small-grade leaves, buds, and some medium-grade tea leaves.

 

Tasting notes

 

This tea has a cooling mouthfeel and a camphor, medicinal scent and flavour.

It also offers a thick, almost creamy mouthfeel, complemented by a mouthwatering, sweet huigan and a lingering aftertaste that remains in the mouth and throat for a long time.

Additionally, the bitterness is low—unless you push it—while astringency ranges from medium to high, depending on how you brew it.

And what’s more, the tea remains potent and can be stored for years to come.

 

About old teas: usually, the wrappers have holes since they are bug-bitten. You may also find tea oil stains. 

Commonly, the paper disintegrates over time. And dust appears between the cake and the wrapper. The dust could also be from the bamboo wrapper. You can remove this dust by blowing it out. The easiest way is to brush it off.

Also, note that there might be hair, tea pods and tiny stones/rocks. 

Please consider this before purchasing old compressed Pu’er teas!
