Loose-leaf Shu Pu-erh is of the Te Ji (特级) category, which translates to "Supreme Grade." This means that the tea will consist of at least 70% tender buds with 1 bud and 1 leaf. It is very close to Imperial grade in terms of raw material quality. The buds will add richness and interesting flavor notes, while the leaves will allow multiple infusions. Te Ji Pu-erh strikes a golden balance between raw material quality, flavor fullness, and price level.
