Use a 100–150ml gaiwan or small teapot. Rinse once briefly with freshly boiled water at 95–100°C \/ 203–212°F, then begin with a 10–15 second drinking infusion. Increase steeping time gradually as the leaf opens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWestern-style method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Use approximately 3–4g for 300–400ml of boiling water. Steep for 2–3 minutes and re-steep to taste. For a softer cup, shorten the infusion; for a denser, darker liquor, extend it gradually rather than over-steeping the first brew.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes the 200g format useful?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA 200g cake is large enough for many tea sessions but more compact than the classic 357g Pu-erh format. It is easier to store, easier to gift and convenient for drinkers who want to explore a Banzhang-area ripe tea without committing shelf space to a larger cake.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eStorage \u0026amp; continued maturation\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a clean, dry, ventilated and odor-free environment away from direct sunlight and excess moisture. Ripe Pu-erh can be kept for long-term storage under stable conditions. Avoid refrigerators, perfume, incense smoke and strongly scented kitchens.

The cream-coloured box, floral branch, circular moon motif and rabbit silhouettes make this tea especially suitable for Mid-Autumn Festival, Lunar New Year, housewarmings, birthdays, wedding gifts, family visits, business gifting and host gifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTea-room styling \u0026amp; interior display\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis is one of those teas that works as décor before the wrapper is even opened.
