2002 Shou Pu-erh Castaway Nuggets
Tea nuggets or commonly known as tea lumps is the discarded tea during the process of making a ripe pu-erh tea. Small lumps of this ripe pu-erh tea are naturally created during the fermentation processed and separated by hands one by one.
The aroma of the tea is sweet and calming. The flavor of the tea is unlike any other shou pu-erh, almost like biting into glutinous rice. Slightly earthy and very easy to drin, perfect for beginners or even advanced tea drinkers.
The tea flavor will be kind of light in the beginning, but get more robust over multiple brews. You can brew this tea for at least 20 times before completely discarding the tea.

2006 Mini Brick Traveler Shou Pu-erh
One of our most popular teas! Shou pu-erh (fermented tea) compressed into a tiny, conveniently-sized brick. Classic shou pu-erh flavor with earthy character.
These mini bricks are convenient and easy to store, and are good for one tea session. To brew, pour water on the brick to loosen up the leaves. Wait until the brick looks softened, then discard the rinse. Brew as normal, infusing up to 8-10 times.Â
Each mini brick weighs 7g and can be aged for many more years given the proper storage. 1 oz contains 4 mini bricks of tea.
We recommend storing many bricks together inside the original pouch to maintain flavor and aroma. The more bricks stored together, the better the storage potential over time.

Deep, earthy, and smooth finish is what makes this Pu-erh a store's favorite. Most tea from this Bu Lang mountain has a very strong after-taste but not bitter. Definitely a great introduction tea to someone who wants to start drinking a strong Shou Pu-erh.Â

Early 1990s CNNP Shou
This shou pu-erh is a production from the 1990s by a lesser-known tea factory in Kunming, under China's famous CNNP state export brand.
Though CNNP cakes from this era can be hit or miss, this one is a solid find! The tea liquor is deep red with brilliant clarity, a sign of good quality for such an old tea. Soft and silky, with a sweet rice fragrance note. Comfortable and gently stimulating.
A great value for a 90s shou.
Stored under moderately dry storage in North America.Â

Harvest:Â Early 1990s
