“This is a relatively nice tea from Chawangshop. It was not terribly expensive but as I recall not dirt cheap either. It was fairly bittersweet at the start with a fair amount of fermentation...” Read full tasting note

Description

“Zi Qi Dong Lai” : The Purple Air comes from the east — a propitious omen. This small ripe puerh cake is exclusive for our shop and Czech tea-sellers. We tasted many different materials and chose this recipe together.
Two kinds of materials from Menghai:
2006 5th grade from Haiwan Tea Factory (stored in Anning) and 2008 Gongting (the highest quality ripe puerh) from a small factory in Menghai (stored in Kunming). The 5th grade from Haiwan TF is definitely better quality than other factories. The leaves are picked in spring and sun-dried, small and soft without long stalks. The liquor has ruby color and clear, In body is creamy dark chocolate taste, sweet and very silky!
