Shu Puerh Zhiwei 2016 — Aged Ripe Puerh (Yunnan)

Yunnan, China

Shu Pu-erh Zhiwei 2016 is a calm, steady shu with a focus on cleanliness and softness: woody notes, light sweetness, and a warm, enveloping infusion without heaviness. It drinks easily, without overload, and works well as an everyday tea. I would choose it for the evening — it relaxes without pressing, though timing is personal, so adjust based on your own feeling. This is a mature fermented pu-erh from the Pu’er region, Yunnan Province, pressed into a 357 g cake. Produced by Pu'er Zhiwei Tea Factory. The local leaf material provides a smooth, stable extraction without sharp fermentation edges. Over time, the profile becomes cleaner and deeper, maintaining balance and a soft texture when stored in a dry, well-ventilated environment.
