Product code:
CSTVI-246
The Bulang Mountains of Yunnan have become a highly sought after terroir, so we are lucky to offer us these compressed 357g cakes. This Sheng Pu er features the rustic aromas (damp hay) traditionally found in teas of this age. Its liquor is oily and has a full and pleasant mouthfeel with soft mineral and fruity nuances.
*Please note that any cakes purchased may have slightly reduced in weight (up to 10%) due to changes in climate and relative humidity.
