2016 Zenpuer Mengku Ancient Tree Green Pu-erh Tea Cake
The pesticide testing has been conducted on this tea, and the tea passed the test against multiple chemicals with flying colors.
Our Zenpuer Mengku tea cake is made by using the ancient tree tea leaves harvested in the second week of 2016 from selected eco tea fields, at least 200 to more than 300 years old. It is the first green Zenpuer tea cake we managed to make in 2016. Yes, we scaled back our production, only the best had the chance to become a Zenpuer.
Now you would enjoy a nice drink with bright yellow tone, and great throat feeling, rich and mouthful. We believe this tea cake would be a good candidate for long term storage.
The only close match you could find is our MGH 1207 Best of Mengku tea.
This is a full-bodied, heavyweight tea that isn’t shy on richness, flavor and complexity. Refreshing, aromatic and sweet, expect a blast off liquor with notes of vegetal, hay, spicy and leather, it can be enjoyed now.
