Menghai HeKai Puerh

He Kai Mountain 'Tea Master'

The Menghun district is located near the famous town of Menghai and is the origin of the special Hekai Mountain Puerh tea. The old tea trees grow on the mountains of Hekai (around 1500 meters above sea-level). Every year, these wild tea trees give their best leaves for the production of Puerh tea cakes. The Hekai Mountain Raw Puerh is a tea with  a distinct character (regarded by some to be quite strong), which is rounded with sweet and smooth notes and a pleasant aftertaste.

This tea was produced in 2007, which was a great year for puerh tea. The amount of rainfall and sunlight was perfect the production of the best puerh tea.

Brewing Instructions: Around eight grams of this tea will be sufficient when using the kungfu tea set or when steeping the tea in a glass or a teapot. When drinking puerh tea, you have to first rinse the tea two times with boiling hot water. This is necessary in order to release the full flavor from the tea leaves. If you have a good quality puerh, you can steep the tea up to fifteen times!

Puerh tea should be stored in a place with enough fresh air and out of direct sunlight. The room doesn´t have to be totally dry, since a little humidity can influence this tea in a positive way, but it should not be too humid. If you don´t have experience with this tea, don´t take the risk with humidity and store the tea in a dry room.
