This tea brick has been aged for 15 years in Guangdong dry storage. The tea is ripened tea leaves from Menghai area tea leaves. The leaves are coarse but because they have been fermented and aged for so long, they taste wonderfully smooth and sweet. Smooth tea that can't be over-brewed and has a super transparent burgundy tea soup. 250 grams per brick ** there is no date stamp on the wrapper, you'll have to take our word for it! ** Some wrappers may be bug-bitten with little holes in the paper. There may also be some dust between the wrapper and the cake. Rinse tea once or twice briefly before drinking! If you are squeamish please don't order this tea!
