Golden Nuggets Black Pu'erh – Smooth, Fruity Pu-erh NuggetsGolden Nuggets Black Pu'erh is a beautiful loose pu-erh harvested and produced on Mount Phoenix in Pu'er, Yunnan Province, southwest China. Its golden tea "nuggets" form naturally during fermentation, when the piled leaves heat up and release pectin, which binds the leaves and buds together into dense clusters. These nuggets are rich in golden tips, and because buds contain more pectin than leaves, they release a unique flavor reminiscent of dried fruit. Once steeped, you'll notice a rich, earthy aroma with a slight initial "funk" that fades away during steeping, revealing a remarkably smooth, mellow cup. Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItGolden Nuggets is a wonderfully versatile pu-erh that can be steeped up to ten times, letting you discover and enjoy its full complexity. Its thick, smooth body and fruity sweetness make it an excellent daily pu-erh and a satisfying coffee alternative.
How to EnjoyGive the nuggets a quick rinse, then brew gongfu-style and enjoy many infusions. It's a comforting morning cup, a cozy after-dinner cup and a lovely companion to dark chocolate and dried fruit. Rich, smooth and beautifully fruity, Golden Nuggets Black Pu'erh is a delightful tea to explore. |

A little steeping tipNuggets need a rinse and a little longer steep. Re-steep 6–8 times.
Why cold brewCold water draws out less bitterness, so the tea tastes smooth and naturally sweet.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
Think of these as a starting point. Every tea is a little experiment, so adjust the amount, temperature and time to your taste.
