2008 FRAGRANT BAMBOO “XIANG ZHU” RAW PUERH
Made from first flush leaves packed in aromatic bamboo that is unique to the Mangshi area of Dehong. As the bamboo heats in fire pits, it releases steam which softens the sun-dried mao cha (unprocessed leaves) which is then pressed down inside the bamboo tubes. A lovely aromatic puerh, floral and sweet.
