Description

Made entirely from Spring 2013 material from the wild growing tea bushes not far from Yi Wu town. After picking the tea was wilted briefly, fried in a wok, rolled by hand and allowed to wilt for another 20 hours, before being naturally air dried.

Nice sweet taste with just a touch of astringency to make the feeling and taste more complex. A good choice for near term aging. Will improve in flavor for up to 5 years.

180 grams per cake (wrapper says 200 gram, but it’s not)
