A 2019 spring harvest of maocha (unaged "raw" pu-erh) from an organic farm in southern Yunnan Province. Harvested at over 1400 meters above sea level, from trees that are between 30-40 years old, this raw pu-erh lacks the bitterness we often expect from this style. Instead, our Jingmai Raw Pu-erh offers a bright, herbaceous aroma of meadow flowers and hay, with a finish akin to raw sugarcane and dried apricot.

While we recommend boiling water for most Pu-erh teas, Jingmai Raw Pu-erh is an unaged and unfermented maocha, and therefore closer to a green or oolong tea in temperament. A lower water temperature around 190°F helps to limit bitterness and increase aroma.
