Product detailed description
Overview
Premium sheng puer tea from Yiwu Tea Mountain (易武), which was pressed in the spring of 2013. The tea leaves are a mix of tea leaves with the prevalence of ancient/mature tea trees (gushu 古树 and qiaomu 乔木) and were processed by Menghai Xianxinghai Chachang (勐海县兴海厂). Tea comes from Shanshan's friend Yuguang, who belongs to the Dai ethnic group (傣族). Her family worked in various tea factories, which is why you can taste part of the tea production from the famous and non-existent Menghai Tea Factory (Menghai Chachang 勐海茶厂) since 2004. The tea is sold in the form of 357 g tea cakes (bingcha 饼茶), which is suitable for long-term storage.
