This tin of glutinous rice pu-erh mini bricks holds ripe (shou) pu-erh pressed into small square pieces together with glutinous rice herb leaf (Nuo Mi Xiang), as listed by the supplier. The supplier notes that the herb leaf is the source of the glutinous-rice fragrance; its green leaves and pale stems are visible in each pressed piece.
Each piece weighs about 6–7 g and comes individually wrapped in gold paper. The supplier suggests one piece per brew, so the 250 g tin (about 40 pieces) is easy to portion session by session.
The supplier describes the cup as having a rich glutinous-rice fragrance with a mellow, sweet taste.
Ingredients: tea leaves, glutinous rice herb leaf (Nuo Mi Xiang). Storage: Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from light and strong odors.
