Let me paint a picture (if the wrapper hasn't done enough to illustrate this tea for you). It's 2am, you've gone out for a drive in your beat up blue 2006 Toyota Matrix to have some alone time. Just driving aimlessly, letting your mind spiral as Avril Lavigne's "Too Complicated" plays on the radio. You drive until you feel your stomach grumble and, there in the distance by the traffic lights, is a gas station (probably Irving if you're like me and live in Atlantic Canada). You stop in and grab yourself a slice of cake from the fridge, and with a hope of good tidings to come next year, you blow out the metaphorical candle on your (hopefully) first birthday cake of the day. Too specific? Yeah probably... Gas Station Birthday Cake is a thick and oily Ripe Pu'er tea with notes of confectionary sugar, vanilla, molasses, and a slight breadiness, all coming together to make the perfect cake. So instead of driving all the way to the gas station, you can just have a sip of this tea and relax (on your birthday or otherwise). Harvest: Early Spring, 2022 Pressed: Spring, 2024 Region: Menghai, Yunnan Each cake is 100 grams
