📍 Harvest and Fermentation: 2019 and 2020; pressed in 2022 in Menghai County, Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province.
🌿 The base of this tea is grade 3 whole leaves, generously complemented by delicate grade 1 buds. Moderate fermentation, paired with three years of pre-aging, turns this blend into a genuine treat!
The tea is pressed into a dense brick form, so be sure to give each segment enough time to expand fully in the water before brewing to unlock its full potential.
Aroma
Freshly churned homemade ice cream, warm cinnamon buns, linden wood, and a subtle hint of cranberries.
Taste
Dark chocolate, caramelized sugar, woody notes, airy whipped cream, pine cones, cilantro stems, and a touch of tangy vitamin C. The finish offers a delicate ashiness and a rich, lingering cocoa aftertaste.
