Description

This little tea cake is composed entirely of first flush of spring sun-dried silver needles from the county of Feng Qing in Lincang. It is stone-pressed by hand in the traditional manner. Our silver needle cake can be aged over the years and will develop a textured and sweet taste.

This tea should not be confused with silver needles white tea, which is heat dried and cannot be aged. Our silver needle cake is composed of sun-dried material and was processed as a traditional raw pu-erh.

Comes in white wrapper without nei fei
