Description
ORIGIN & HARVEST TIME
Yunnan, China, Menghai, 2008
CHARACTER
Aged sheng with a humid aroma and earthy notes, offering a lasting rhyme where camphorous, tangy, and mushroom-like characteristics remain steadily present. As a Menghai tea, its style leans toward robust and bold profiles, with its hardness only mellowing around the 10th infusion.
This tea is meant for tasting, as such mineral-rich, uniquely camphorous teas are not easy to drink daily. Its mineral hardness settles into a mushroomy tanginess by the end of the session, remaining notably full-bodied for another 10 infusions.
A serious, powerful tea, recommended only for practiced tea drinkers. Also available in 250g tea bricks.
