Product detailed description

Overview
Premium sheng puer tea from Yiwu Tea Mountain (易武), which was pressed in the spring of 2016. The tea leaves come from old tea trees (laoshu 老树) and were processed by Shanshan's cousin Wangjia. Wangjia belongs to the Yi ethnic group (彝族) and focuses on producing teas from Yibang (倚邦), Yiwu (易武), Mangzhi (蛮砖), Gedeng (革登) a Mangzhuang (莽枝) mountain areas. The Yiwu teas (易武) are often characterized by a distinctive sweetness and fruitiness profile. The tea is sold in the form of a dragon ball (longzhu 龙珠), where you can prepare your tea without measuring the amount. Each dragon ball weighs about 8 g (± 10 %). Tea can be stored in the long-term.
