Junn Shenn Pu-erh Tea Balls — 5-Year Aged Puerh Black Tea, 30 Count (210 g) — Organic Yunnan, Multiple Steeps

Junn Shenn Chinese Puerh Tea are hand-pressed 5-year aged black tea balls, fully fermented and calibrated to brew a clear, mellow cup.

These compact 30-count tea balls (210 g total) come from an established Yunnan Yinhao factory in Lincang, the historical home of Pu-erh. Each ball is made from leaves grown on organic-certified tea gardens near the Lancang River, compressed and fermented for five years to develop a rounded, earthy sweetness and a bright red-brown infusion. Designed for multiple steeps, one ball can yield roughly 1,500 ml of brewed tea — convenient for single-serve brewing or sharing a pot with guests.

What flavor and aroma should I expect from these 5-year puerh tea balls?

The fermentation yields a soft, earthy backbone balanced by gentle dried-fruit and woody notes, with a light floral lift in the finish. The liquor pours bright and clear, presenting amber to red-crystal tones rather than heavy cloudiness.

• Primary taste: smooth earthiness with subtle sweet undertones
• Aroma: mild fermented complexity with faint floral or camphor hints
• Liquor color: bright red-brown, limpid and polished
• Finish: clean, gentle aftertaste without astringent harshness

How do I brew one tea ball to get the best cup?

Rinse the ball briefly with near-boiling water to awaken the leaves, then steep using 95–100°C (203–212°F) water. Start with a short first infusion of 10–20 seconds for concentrated flavor, then increase steep time gradually across multiple infusions.

• Rinse: 5–10 seconds with boiling water to open the leaf
• First steep: 10–20 seconds; subsequent steeps +10–20 seconds
• Water ratio: one ball per 600–1,000 ml for lighter cups, or per 300–500 ml for a stronger brew
• Reusable: expect 6–10 quality infusions depending on vessel and timing

What makes this product reliable compared with other puerh teas?

These tea balls are produced by a long-established Lincang factory with its own organic tea gardens, meaning traceability from leaf to press. Traditional fermentation and controlled aging help stabilize flavor across batches, creating consistent cups for everyday drinking or gifting.

• Origin: Yunnan Lincang, near the Lancang River
• Processing: classical fermentation and five years of controlled aging
• Source control: factory-owned organic tea plantations
• Form factor: compressed balls for portion control and storage stability

How can I use these tea balls beyond a simple cup?

These compact balls are versatile: brew in a gaiwan, teapot, or large pitcher, and experiment with cold-brewing for a softer finish. They also make a convenient pantry staple for hospitality, tea blending, or small-batch recipe uses where a stable, fermented black tea note is desired.

• Cold brew: 8–12 hours in cold water for a smooth, mellow profile
• Culinary: infuse syrups, poaching liquids, or baking liquids for depth
• Entertaining: single balls for shared pots at gatherings
• Storage: compact compressed balls save space and stay flavorful
