Gongting Qi Zi is a beautiful & rich shu pu'erh made from sun dried Big Tea leaves. Originating from the Menghai region of the Yunnan province of China, this tea was aged perfectly & continues to refine itself through the years as I write this & you read this. The color of the tea liquor starts off with a light red hue & deepens into a dark burgundy as you experience each steep. When it comes to gongfu method of brewing, I typically see around 12 steeps when using around 7 grams.

The taste of this magnificent tea is complex to say the least. It has a rich earthiness that is common to shu pu'erhs, however that taste develops into a stonefruit, that conveys an herbal sweetness. The scent is soft & woody with a hint of that fruitiness above. Gongting Qi Zi is truly a high-end shu pu'erh that will elevate any gatherings you have. The tea energy, or cha qi, of the Gongting is grounding with a slight heady, yet focusing tonic.
