This is a cake composed entirely of the “huang pian” (mature larger leaves) that were hand-plucked from the mao cha (loose leaf raw pu-erh) that composed our Spring 2020-2021 Jinggu productions.
These large leaves are entirely from wild arbor or ancient arbor tea trees and have a great deal of depth and flavor. They deliver a honey-like sweetness with a nice viscous lubricating mouth-feel. We’ve given this tea the name 春晓 which means “Spring Morning” because of it’s fresh but gentle character.
