Description

Our 2013 Lao Man E is a blend of bitter and sweet trees growing between 1300-1400m elevation. After producing sweet LME for the past 2 years, we decided to amp up the bitterness this year. Our most powerful LaoManE to date. The dry leaves give off a delicious aroma of fresh watermelon.
