This is a small tuocha made of tips/buds raw materials from Lincang area. After being stored in USA since 2008, something has happened to it. The ageing element does kick in as witnessed by the color of the brewed soup – it becomes golden, oily with certain thickness. It’s a tea that is over 10 year old.
