Lao - Thea Placida Rustic from Yunnan
Discover a creation that explores the depths of Pu'er tea in all its richness and structure. Thea Placida unveils the rich heritage of tea, inspired by the experience of wine. With this exclusive case of four bottles, Rustic from Yunnan stands out as a powerful and nuanced expression, capturing the soul of a rich terroir through a drink that is as raw as it is refined.
Made from Pu'er Menghai Sheng Tai , grown at an altitude of 800 meters in the Xishuangbanna region, this creation combines hot and cold extractions inspired by the mizudashi method, enriched by an infusion of oak chips. This process reveals a remarkable balance between tension, density and elegance, in a composition that is at once woody, musky and umami.
To be enjoyed in a beautiful glass to reveal all its complexity and aromatic depth.
Dress : Slightly veiled old gold, patinated bronze reflections, fluid and dense texture.
Nose : Musky and earthy aromas, with notes of incense, dried figs and old wood.
Mouth : A subtle tension opens the way to deep notes of damp earth and noble wood, enhanced by umami accents of shiitake and white miso. The body gradually rounds out to reveal a long and enveloping finish, marked by ripe cherry and a caress of golden honey.
Taste : Woody, mushroomy and musky, with balanced acidity and a stable, linear texture.
Rustic from Yunnan: Woody. Aged. Grown in mixed farming.
