Madrugada — Organic Pu-Erh Tea

The Essence

Madrugada means dawn. This blend captures that moment of absolute stillness when the first rays of sun filter through the dew-drenched leaves of the Costa Rican rainforest. In addition, it was created to offer an original, indulgent, and deeply restorative comfort—a healthy, all-natural luxury. Therefore, it serves as the perfect ally to unplug from the daily rush, transforming a simple afternoon break into a sensory journey of warm, exotic notes.

Sensory Profile:

• Intensity: 4/5 (full-bodied and velvety).
• Bitterness: 1/5 (almost absent). The natural density of Pu-Erh is beautifully softened by the sweetness of coconut and vanilla extract.
• Dominant Notes: The deep, earthy character typical of Pu-Erh (forest floor, ancient wood), enriched by warm spices (cinnamon) and sweetened by a smooth, exotic finish (vanilla, coconut).
• Caffeine: Moderate. Provides a steady, sustained release of energy while remaining exceptionally gentle on the stomach.

Best Enjoyed:

From morning through afternoon. Exceptional after lunch due to the natural digestive benefits of Pu-Erh tea. Not recommended for late evening due to the caffeine content.

Ingredients

Pu Erh Tea China, coconut, cacao nibs, cinnamon sticks, popcorn, vanilla extract, cornflower blue. All ingredients in this fruit blend are 100% organic.

Is this blend for you?

Yes, if you...

• Are looking for a gourmet, creamy, and richly fragrant tea that can substitute for an afternoon dessert.
• Want to experience an unusual, exotic, and original Pu-Erh blend (thanks to the unique touch of popcorn and coconut).

Brewing Steps

Follow these steps to get the very best from your infusion:

• Quantity: Use 2,5 g of tea (or 1 scoop with our perfect cup tea spoon) for a 200 ml cup
• Water: 100°C
• Brewing Time: 4–5 minutes.

Our Tip

To fully enhance the creamy soul of the coconut and the aroma of the cacao, be sure to cover your cup during the 5-minute infusion. If you want to create a true pastry-shop ritual, try adding a splash of coconut or almond milk: the texture becomes incredibly velvety, turning Madrugada into a dream-like warm drink for the colder months.

Sweet Pairings

When it comes to something sweet, dark chocolate, spiced cakes, and desserts with warm, rich flavors are delightful choices that perfectly enhance the earthy undertones of Pu Erh tea. Moreover, nutty treats like almond biscotti and flaky almond croissants are particularly complementary, as the natural sweetness and slight bitterness of almonds mirror the tea's complex depth, creating a harmonious balance of flavors.

Savoury Pairings

Pairing this tea with savoury bites is equally rewarding; enjoy it alongside cured meats, bold cheeses, or roasted nuts to bring out its deep notes. It also pairs beautifully with hearty dishes like stews or braised meats, which enhance the tea’s complex character.

Light Fare

If you prefer lighter options, try it with grilled vegetables or mild rice dishes, which balance its robust profile perfectly without overwhelming the palate.
