PU ERH, Millésime 2008
Matured tea from China
Jardin Premier*
Mariage Frères introduces the French Art of Tea to the closed and confidential world of Pu-Erh. Shaking up the codes once again, our privileged relationship with the planter has yielded a completely unexpected harvest. Just like the rarest Champagnes, the best harvests issued from specially reserved parcels of land are graded making this unique cru worthy of its place in our one-of-a-kind Pu-Erh collection.
Dried leaves: The ashy, ebony leaves exhale a fresh fragrance of wild mallow and wet volcanic rock.
Infused leaves: An exquisite bouquet of ginger torch blends with horn of plenty mushroom
Liquor: Shimmering wenge. Delicately earthy undertones yield to nuances of candied cherry coated in raw cocoa.
The connoisseur’s delight.
