Description

Originating from ecological plantations (Sheng Tai), this shou Pu Er was compressed in the traditional form of the bird’s nest (tuo cha). Its liquor, opaque and deep, has a dense and silky texture, enhanced with classic notes of damp undergrowth and roots (licorice). Subtle aerial nuances of incense and oat flowers confer lightness and softness to well-rooted tea. An entry-level aged tea of excellent quality.
