2024 Yunnan Sourcing "Man Zhuan Village" Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake

Entirely Ancient Arbor tea from Spring 2023 Harvest from Man Zhuan in the Yi Wu mountain range. Man Zhuan is one of the six famous tea mountains in Banna and is just north of Yi Wu. This year we have selected spring harvest (第一波春茶) wild arbor material from the area of "Man Zhuan" (蛮砖), a higher mountain areas in the Yi Wu mountain. Man Zhuan area teas are known for their special thick aroma and a taste that with age becomes stronger and more textured. This tea comes from wild arbor trees and bushes ranging age from 40 to 60 years old. This tea was wet-piled into ripe pu-erh tea in Menghai town during the summer of 2023.

The brewed tea is potent and thick with a fairly strong bitter character that quickly transforms itself into long-lasting sweetness in the mouth and throat. Cha Qi is strong!

We recommend trying alongside our 2024 Yi Bang Village production for comparison and enjoyment!
