2016 Wujin “Old Tea Heads” Lao Cha Tou Ripe Pu Erh Tea 250g

The 2016 Wujin Old Tea Heads(Lao Cha Tou 老茶头) are a rare and unique form of ripe Pu Erh tea. During the fermentation process, natural pectin binds the tea leaves into small, dense clusters known as “tea heads,” which are deep, dark brown in color, resembling the rich hue of Wujin (black gold). These tea heads have undergone 8 years of natural aging, developing complex flavors and a smooth, layered taste profile that makes each brew a delightful experience.

Unlike traditional Pu Erh tea cakes, the Old Tea Heads are incredibly convenient for brewing—simply take a piece and steep it as needed. This convenience, combined with the deep, matured flavors, makes it an excellent choice for tea lovers looking for a more immediate yet equally refined Pu Erh experience.

The aging process enhances the tea’s mellow taste, with each steep revealing layers of flavors that evolve gradually. The tea is rich, full-bodied, and smooth, with a natural sweetness that becomes more prominent with each infusion.
