A one-hour sit-down tasting for flavour nerds and fermentation lovers before the FUNKFEST kicks off.
If you’re into fermentation, terroir, old trees, and drinks that reward attention, this one’s for you. No ceremony cosplay, no mysticism—just excellent tea, brewed properly, with context.
The teas
-
2023 Mulberry Leaf Fu Zhuan Heicha (Golden Flowers)
- A post-fermented dark tea grown on mulberry leaves and fermented with Eurotium cristatum. Earthy, grainy, gently sweet, with soft umami. Fans of mixed fermentation and farmhouse-style beers will feel right at home.
-
2025 High Mountain Dancong Oolong
- Single-bush oolong from high elevation, prized for aromatic precision. Floral, mineral, structured. Think clarity and definition rather than volume.
-
2024 Kuzhushan Gushu Sheng Pu’er – “Lychee Thunder”
- Raw pu’er from old trees. Bright fruit, tension, evolving bitterness, and a long, dry finish. Powerful, dynamic, and very much alive in the cup.
What to expect
