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.
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.
Origin: Menghai, Yunnan Province, China
Harvest: 2006

this was my first time trying pu-erh. i had no idea what to expect, but when i saw the dark red color, i worried that it might have the bitterness of a black tea. to my delight, it was smooth and rich with a hint of herbal. not bitter at all! it was deeply nostalgic of the black walnut extract my mom used to give me as medicine when i was a kid. deep, nutty, and complex without having to become an acquired taste! i'm definitely excited to venture into the world of pu-erh after this.
Simply Lovely Earthy.. Full bodied yet very balance all the way through
I love it. I pretty much have one daily. They are easy and still delicious.
I have used one cube of the Mini Brick Traveler Shou Pu-erh tea to make pitch full of ice-tea. It is so good!
My first pu-erh. Overall, I like it a lot. I am saving a couple bricks to come back to after I have more tea experience. The convenient brick form is very convenient.
