2024 Yunnan Sourcing "Ku Zhu Shan" Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake

Ku Zhu Mountain is near Wenshan village about 7 kilometers southeast of Jing Gu town in Pu'er prefecture (previously known as Simao).

Ku Zhu mountain tea is strong and is much more bitter than their sweeter Yang Ta (another Jing Gu area) counterpart. The taste is something of a marriage between Jing Gu and Mengku teas, but entirely unique. From 100+ year old tea trees growing naturally. A premium wild arbor tea with excellent aging possibilities!

There is a matching black tea from Ku Zhu Shan called 2024 Yunnan Sourcing "Ku Zhu Shan Hong" Black Tea Cake.

250 grams per cake, 7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong
