Shou Pu-erh Cha Gao
SKU: SPCG
Cha Gao literally translated means tea paste. However, the substance is not at all pasty and is more like a solidified rock, which dissolves in hot water.
This speciality of Yunnan province uses a technique to take the liquid from the tea leaves and then solidify the liquid into shapes that can easily be dissolved in water to make tea.
These mini 1gram bricks are individually wrapped and perfect for making tea on the go.
Please note, price is per 1 brick only.
