2026 Yunnan Sourcing "Journey" Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake

This year's Journey ripe tea cake is made entirely from aged wild arbor Yi Wu mao cha (6 years) that was wet-piled in early 2025! The result is a thick and textured ripe with a lot of flavor and body!

Smooth and rich tea, with notes of currant and chocolate, with a very creamy mouth-feel! Wet pile taste will persist for a year or two depending on storage conditions. We recommend brewing this for 30-60 minutes in a flask or thermos to maximize flavor. Use about 1.3-1.6 grams per 100ml volume for best results!

Each cake comes in a free matching gift box that features the full uncropped illustration by Anna Malec. The matching gift box is not available for purchase separately.  NOTE: If the gift box arrives with creases or cosmetic blemishes we cannot provide a free replacement.
