2020 Yunnan Sourcing "Na Han Village" Old Arbor Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake

Na Han Village (那罕寨) is located near Bang Dong village in the county Mengku, Lincang prefecture.Bang Dong is a small village situated at an altitude of 1750 meters.  Our production is made entirely from the tea picked by one family's small ancestral tea garden. The tea trees are 150-250 years of age and are growing naturally.

Na Han village area tea is very strong tea both in taste and cha qi.  The bitterness is very noticeable, but softens after a few seconds in the mouth giving way to a sweet, vegetal taste and nice cooling and mouth-watering effect.  This is very much due to the fact that this tea comes from older trees which convey a subtle but highly profound drinking experience.

A total of 40 kilograms in total was produced.  We pressed these tea cakes with a stone-press and used low-temperature drying to preserve the integrity of the tea.
