The verdict
Where this pick fits.
Aged, fermented Yunnan tea pressed into single-serving discs. Deep, earthy, almost like wet stone after rain. The first cup is a shock. The third is when you understand.
Pressed dark and aged slow. First sip is a shock. Third is where it lives. It earned its spot in our lineup by solving the stage it's supposed to solve — without pretending to solve every stage after it.
