2021 Yunnan Sourcing "Meng Song" Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake

Currently unavailable

We don't know when or if this item will be available.

This ripe cake is pressed a from a wet pile batch done entirely from Meng Song area (Menghai County) tea leaves harvested in 2020 and wet piled in late 2020!

Meng Song ripe tea has a very potent cha qi, with a thick tea soup, dark chocolate like bitterness and fruity sweetness. Pure Meng Song ripe tea is relatively rare. It has a unique bitter-sweet character with a fast hui gan and a touch of licorice sweet after-taste.

For those of you who purchase this tea during the year of 2021 expect that there will be some wet pile taste throughout 2021, but will fade gradually as the tea ages. Remember pu-erh increases in palatability and complexity with age! In Chinese we refer to this as 越陈越香.
