2014 Yunnan Sourcing Bangbao Village Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake

Bangbao village resides in the area of Bangdong county about 50km west of Lincang (city) and just a few kilometers west of the Lancang (Mekong) river.  Bangbao village is a remote village with old tea trees growing naturally.  The character of the tea is strong, pungent and cooling.  The spring is the best for aging as it's bitter and astringent.  Our production is one family's harvest.  Only 60kg in total was harvested and we purchased all the tea for our pressing!

High quality old tree material expertly processed.  Stone pressed in the traditional manner!
