IN A NUTSHELL:
Sticky rice tuo chas are small, compressed tea cakes shaped like a bowl (known as a tuo cha), and are flavored with an herb that naturally produces a sweet, starchy fragrance reminiscent of freshly cooked sticky rice. Despite their name, they don’t actually contain sticky rice. These are a popular type of pu erh tea in Chinese tea culture, known for their unique flavor and convenient single-serving size.

Sticky rice tuo chas can be re-steeped multiple times, with flavors evolving over each infusion.

Place one tuo cha in a teapot or mug, with or without an infuser, and steep 3-5 minutes. Adjust based on how strong you like your tea.
