Description

This is a spring batch of pure old tree black tea from Mengku area of Lincang in Yunnan, where it has one of the biggest acreage of old tea trees.

Well-selected the plump buds from tea plantation with altitude over 1200 meters high, adopted the traditional Yunnan gongfu black tea making process, this tea enjoys very deep floral/sweet aroma, rich taste full of sweetness with no astrigency at all; dense, thick & sticky tea liquid, with smooth & deep throat feeling, which is one obvious characters of old tea trees.

Tea tree: old trees with age average of over 150 years old; big leaf variety in Mengku, Lincang areas of Yunnan.
