Made from the huangpian material of the same year’s OCISLY , formerly WMD, this tea is a window into premium puer without the premium prices. This Mansa huangpian consists of the larger yellow leaves that are separated from raw puer after it’s been dried. Aside from the differences in appearance, this tea offers a smoother, sweeter and less aggressive experience compared to its fresh growth counterpart. While this tea might be less complex, some similarities remain in terms of fragrance, texture and energy/chaqi. One of our favourite huangpians over the years, this tea is a strong candidate for storage and daily drinking. $0.09/gram
