We are excited to offer this premium ripe pu-erh cake made entirely from Spring 2015 Bu Lang mountain material.  First flush material was collected from several Bu Lang villages and fermented for 46 days.  After fermentation was completed, the tea was dried and graded.  We blended the various grades to create a balance recipe comprising of tippy golden buds and heavier grade 1,3,5 and 7 leaves. The term "Hui Run" refers to the sweet, slippery and soothing feeling that lingers in the mouth and throat even after the tea drinking session has ended. 

 

357 grams per cake (7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong)

Only 200 kilograms in total available!

Not what I'd expect

"Got a sample of this, have been through 5 infusions of 7.5g in 100ml, and it is unlike any other ripe puerh I've had. It really tastes more like a fu zhuan, with a lot more "high notes" - the bright almost tart woody flavors, almost a hint of lemongrass - and very little of the deep dark chocolate notes. The tea liquor also was lighter in color for each step than my other ripe puerh cakes. Not the flavor I was going for this morning, but I definitely get the hui run described - my tongue is warm and slick and even tingly, which is my early sense of the very potent deep calming cha qi I feel throughout my chest a few cups in. I'm happier with this with a pinch of sugar - not sure I would buy it, but if I were in the mood for a fu that impressed me more than any in my fu sampler I would go for this instead."

Palatable for a Non-Shou Fan

"I prefer sheng puerhs and pressed whites. This tea was tossed in as a freebie sample in an order, so I figured I'd give it a shot. There is that standard shou "compost/woody" note at the beginning, though around the fourth or fifth steep, I'm starting to get more of the tea notes that I recognize. Not very astringent at all, and only a little bitter when I oversteep a round. My mouth feels warmed, and the room even feels a little warmer than it did. Very mild, and the notes are more rounded than I'm used to with my sheng experience -- but it's not bad! The "lumber" notes weren't very obtrusive to begin with, and they continue to fade into the background as this tea goes through more steeps. In my limited shou experience, this one is well-rounded, with no jarring notes that stand out against the rest. It's a full, easy drinker, and while I wouldn't order more for myself, I have it saved in my wishlist to pick up a bing for the shou fan in my life."

Deep and Complex

"This tea starts seemingly simple, regular ripe puerh and develops to something amazing after third infusion. Deep, complex flavor and mouthfeel which combine initial bite and lingering sweetness."

Deep, robust, complex!

"This is a deep, robust and complex tea. It has bitterness, sweetness, and a long lasting taste. It goes 10+ steeps for me. 2011 and 2013 Hui Run's aging nicely already... I picked up some this now while it's still cheap."
