Originally stored in Hong Kong before being brought to Vancouver in 2001. This classic 7542 cake has been carefully aged for decades under stable dry storage conditions in Vancouver. The tea yields a dark amber liquor with a sweet and complex aroma. Its smooth, creamy texture carries notes of aged plum and camphor, followed by a lingering, cooling finish. The cup reveals deep maturity and harmony—an elegant expression of the Menghai 7542 recipe at its prime, leaving a calm yet powerful sense of energy.Tea: Pu-Erh Tea Cake, 7542 , Menghai Tea Factory, 1980's (Raw/Sheng) Factory: Menghai Tea FactoryWeight Per Cake: 350 grams Origin: Yunnan Province, Types: Sheng/Raw Harvest Period: 1980's
