Pu-erh beeng cha formed black tea has elemental earthly notes with a strong cup.  Once this tea is compressed, it is aged two years. This process gives the tea a wonderfully earthly, or elemental profile with underlying musty notes. As well, the leaves of the tea, once broken off the cake can be brewed a number of times - with each brewing, the flavor of the cup shifts and changes in incredibly subtle ways.

Hot tea brewing method:  Bring filtered or freshly drawn water to a rolling boil. Break tea apart and place 1 slightly heaping teaspoon of loose tea for each 7 - 9 oz/200-260ml of fluid volume in the teapot. Pour the boiling water into the teapot. Cover and let steep 3-7 minutes according to taste. Add milk and sugar to taste.
