Description

Gan Hai Zi village (Dry Ocean Village) is located in the southeast of Jing Gu county of Simao. The leaves used for our production come from mature and naturally growing tea trees. The tea was picked in during the last days of September and the first week of October during the dry cool sunny weather that follows the end of the monsoon season in southern Yunnan.

Gan Hai Zi is a high altitude tea (1700 meters) that gives a high aroma, cooling mouth-feel, sweet, floral, with a bitter and astringent finish. This pu-erh is very much an experimental tea, with complexity and a completely unique character. The leaves and stems are very burly and attest to their old tree origins.
