Old Tree "Aged Cha Hua" Tea Flowers Brick
Pressed from Camellia sinensis var. assamica blossoms harvest from older tea trees in the Da Qing village and Ku Zhu mountain area in Jinggu, Simao (Pu’er). Pressed in 2013 and stored locally in Jinggu since 2013. This is a sweet, soothing cup with a very low caffeine lift, great for unwinding at night or for anyone caffeine-sensitive. Expect a thick, viscous mouthfeel and a long, honeyed finish. Also fantastic as a blending ingredient with white tea, black tea, or pu-erh (ripe or raw).
Blending ideas
-
With white tea: 70/30 white to flowers for extra body and honeyed sweetness.
-
With black tea: 80/20 black to flowers to soften edges and add a syrupy finish.
-
With ripe pu-erh: 50/50 for a dessert-like, cocoa-honey cup.
-
With raw pu-erh: 70/30 sheng to flowers to round structure and lengthen the sweet aftertaste.
In Summary
-
Caffeine: very low (tea blossoms contain far less caffeine than leaf)
