This tea is a shining example of what we love about Yiwu teas. Typical to Yiwu in general, it exhibits a pleasant fragrance and soft texture that makes it approachable, but with a bolder flavour and more depth. Made from early spring Gaoshan qiaomu (arbor) material, this tea has a sweetness that penetrates deep into the soup, with very low bitterness and astringency, making it ideal for those who shy away from the more aggressive style of Menghai teas, astringent-leaning Lincang teas, or rougher Jingmai/Simao teas, but still want an engaging and highly enjoyable raw puer. This tea makes for a great stepping stone from something like our budget friendly Year of the Rabbit Yiwu, into the world of mid-range puers, not to mention is a strong candidate for both drinking now and storing for later.
