Product detailed description
Overview
Delicate red tea from the Mensong tea mountain area (勐宋), which was harvested in the spring of 2023. The tea leaves come from old trees (dashu 大树) and were hand-picked and processed by Shanshan's cousin Yukan. Yukan belongs to the Bulang ethnic minority (布朗) and focuses on producing teas from the new tea mountains areas, Bada (巴达), Bulang (布朗), Mengsong (勐宋) a Nannuo (南糯). The Mengsong teas are often characterized by a fruity-flower taste with distinctive smoky tones. The tea is sold in the form of a dragon ball dried on the sun (longzhu 龙珠), where you can prepare your tea without measuring the amount. Each dragon ball weighs about 8 g (± 10 %). Tea should be consumed within a few years.
Gift box
The gift box is made of waterproof aluminium. With this tea box, you'll be able to prevent oxidation, block light, and avoid other negative factors affecting the tea's flavour. The tea box features the Banna House logo and descriptive stickers, including recommended tea preparation. In the gift package, you will find 6 dragon balls with a total weight of 50 g (± 10%).
