Note: The Midnight Brick is a cooked pu-er tea from one of the major Yunnan pu-er factories. It was selected from among their entire stock by our elite tea ninjas after hours of tasting literally dozens of teas. We will not at present divulge the identity of the Midnight Brick, but let the following be known:
1. The Midnight Brick is two years old.
2. WC茶C is, at present, in possession of a finite supply of Midnight Brick. When this quantity has been exhausted, the identity of the Midnight Brick will be revealed to the public.
This particular specimen was chosen from among dozens of similarly-priced teas to be the First Tier Cooked Pu Er flagship.
It was chosen on the strength of its accessibility, ease of preparation, affordability, having qualities characteristic of its category, and on the strength of additional exemplary qualities, including a fully-developed after-fragrance and a complex, pronounced hui gan.
