Description

The 3kg Year of the Dog Raw Pu-erh is a standout release in the Zodiac series, created to honour the spirit and symbolism of 2018. Crafted using high-quality spring material and pressed in an impressive large-format cake, it continues the tradition of producing collectible, age-worthy raw Pu-erh to mark each zodiac year. The generous weight reflects abundance and good fortune, and it also provides excellent ageing potential by allowing the tea to mature slowly and evenly over time.

The cake’s presentation draws from traditional New Year colours associated with prosperity, loyalty, and protection, qualities that are linked to the Year of the Dog. Its bold and celebratory packaging makes it an eye-catching centrepiece for display, gifting, or long-term collection.

Inside, the tea carries the freshness and structure characteristic of well-selected spring leaves. As it ages, it is expected to develop increased sweetness, depth, and smoothness, rewarding those who store it patiently. With its combination of craftsmanship, symbolism, and scale, this zodiac edition stands as both a meaningful collector’s item and a long-term investment in high-quality raw Pu-erh.

Brewing Guide

Use 5-10g of tea and a 100-150ml gaiwan or small teapot.

Water temperature should be at ~95°C.

Rinse the leaves once before the first infusion.
5-10s for the first steep, a few seconds longer for each subsequent steep.

Storage

Pu-erh is alive and continues to evolve over time. Store your tea in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated space, away from direct sunlight and strong odours. Avoid sealed containers—Pu-erh benefits from gentle airflow. Over the years, its flavour will deepen and mature naturally, rewarding patience and proper care.
