The 1990s Xiaguan Mushroom Tuo Cha is pressed in the traditional mushroom shape, a form historically made for the tea trade to Tibet. This distinctive shape dates back centuries, when durability, portability, and ease of transport were essential for long-distance tea trading. The tea is made from larger, mature leaves, giving it a rich and full-bodied character. With age, it has developed a smooth and mellow taste with notable depth. The liquor reveals earthy notes with gentle hints of camphor, creating a lingering and satisfying finish. It is an appealing choice for those who appreciate well-aged Pu-erh with both character and history.
