Pu Er Sheng 2001 Lahu Wild Trees 1000 Years Old
Grand cru
Product code:
CSTVI-63
Produced by the Lahu of Xishuangbanna, one of the ethnic groups of Yunnan, this aged tea is composed of leaves from 1,000 year old wild trees.
Bronzed by time, these large leaves once rinsed, divulge intoxicating scents of undergrowth and spices.
On the palate, its silky texture and fruity notes rub shoulders with fine nuances of leather and incense. Its long minty finish leave an exquisite impression of invigorating fullness!
