Outstanding and outperforming, this tea checks all the boxes: High fragrance, lingering sweetness, excellent mouthfeel, noticeable body feeling/energy, and a price that is easily half of what similar performing teas can be. If you were to drink this tea blind, it would be hard to believe it barely even cracks the mid-range of puer pricing. Hailing from Bangdong, just around the corner from the famed village of Xigui, this big tree material comes from a rocky terrain, which lends it dynamic qualities and a sought after “Yanyun”. This translates to a mineral sweetness, full feeling in the mouth and layered aroma that progresses nicely with each brew. This is absolutely a tea that’s worth doubling up on, as one cake might be gone quicker than you expect. $0.30/gram Region: Bangdong, Lincang Prefecture Picking Period: April 8-13, 2025
