From the Mengyang Guoyan Tea Factory, this lovely Banna Aged ripe pu-erh tea cake is perfect to enjoy right now! Dong Guoyan is an ex-Menghai tea factory blender who started the Mengyang Guoyan tea factory in 2003. The tea factory is located in Mengyang town north of Jinghong in Xishuangbanna and the material for this wet piling batch was procured in the Youle area. Dong Guoyan also oversaw the wet piling of this lovely tea. The tea has been aged in Banna in a storage condition for 12 years. The result is an ultra smooth ripe pu-erh tea with a creamy aged taste. The tea produces a deep burgundy hued tea soup and can be infused 12-15 times!
Highly recommended for fans of super smooth but complex and textured ripe pu-erhs!
