Description

We are very excited to offer this aged Yi Wu raw pu-erh tea! The tea was harvested in Spring 2003, and then stored as loose leaf “mao cha” in Yi Wu before being purchased by the Hong Xuan Tea Factory at the end 2006 when it was pressed. Since then it has been stored in the mountainous area to the north of Kunming.

This is well aged tea that will surprise many with it’s aged character. Warm, thick, sweet, and complex to drink.
