Pu er Sheng 2021 Nan Hua
Try this tea first
Product code:
CSTVI-265
This young Pu er is from the old trees of the village of Nan Hua, in the valley of Nan Mei (Lincang, Yunnan). The artisans that produced it have been plucking and processing exceptional quality leaves and pressing cakes for us for quite a few years now. Cakes that continue to be a highlight in our catalogue.
Fresh and ready to drink this is tea is also ideal for ageing. Leaves express aromatics of fruity apricot and tree bark. The liquor is smooth with a vibrant golden colour. Lively vegetal flavours are balanced with notes of caramelized sugar and a zesty citrus finish.
