Vietnam Pu er 1980's no 111

This is a small, precious batch of leaves picked and processed in Vietnam over 40 years ago, and aged in China with traditional Chinese Pu er storage techniques. The gentle ageing process gives us access to a rare product sought after by the world's greatest connoisseurs.
The long infused leaves give off refined aromas of earth and smoke. The rapid attack of the liquor fills the mouth with mineral flavours and a delicate taste of tanned leather, giving way to a camphor effect often found in this family of teas.
- Pour water, at recommended temperature for the infusion, on to the leaves.
- Allow leaves to soak for 5 to 10 seconds.

Pu Er Sheng 1988 Menghai | Collection Box
Here is a rare gem, an exceptional lot of Pu Er sheng (raw) and a vintage worthy of the any collector. Traditionally aged in Hong Kong, these leaves are from a brick compressed over 30 years ago in the famous Menghai factory in Yunnan, China. A testament to importance of the Da Ye cultivar for ageing teas, which improves over time and, thanks to its tannic and mineral qualities, expresses the attention to detail that was devoted to each stage of processing. The tea has matured slowly into a product rich in complexity and generous in infusions, the signatures of great aged teas.
