2022 Moon Bear doesn’t really fit neatly into a genre box. Not exactly raw Puer, not really white tea. Whatever you want to call it this Yunnan tea performs like a smoother version of fresh raw Puer with unique bright aromatics and a supple soup carrying savory flavors.
We didn’t intend to make this into a mainstay, but after an appearance in our tea club and severe arm twisting from our lovely members, the Moon Bear is back.
In order of strength: Raspberry Lambic, Champagne, White Grape Skin, Sugar
Wet Leaf aroma is pure Lindemans Framboise (Raspberry Lambic Beer). On the palate there is tart wild berry, champagne, white grape skin, and creme burlee far into the distance on the after taste. Moon Bear is my favorite teacher of the potential evolution of tea as the session drags on. After many steeps all the fruit and alcohol disappears and all that is left is pure white sugar. Cha Qi is happy and laxed.
Unfortunately the cake leaves a lot of potency in its profile to be desired, contrary to the sample I had before the cake purchase.
