There aren't any tasting notes for this tea yet.
A lot of care when into the basic ingredients in this cake. The first thing to consider in this tea is the picking and an effort to preserve the leaf configuration in the making process. The blend of maocha comes from three different locations. The first, Yong De is an area that is know more for it’s black tea, this maocha was selected for it’s sweetness and fragrance. The maocha from Mengku was selected for it’s robust flavor and it’s richness. The maocha from Lin Cong was selected for it’s body and complex after taste. Also great care when into getting the right compression so that it would age well. We are hoping this will be a very collectable cake. The taste is very approachable for a young cake and we are looking forward to tracking the taste as it ages.
