Entirely "Ye Sheng" varietal tea from the highest reaches of the Wu Liang mountains. Growing above 2000 feet these wild tea bushes range from 50 to 200 years old. We had originally asked for 100 kilograms of this wonderful tea but it's so rare and due to dry weather, we were only able to get 60 kilograms! Rich thick flavor, without much bitterness. This is the most delicate wild tree purple teas I have ever tasted! Nice comfortable cha qi with no edge. This tea can be infused many times. Pressed by stone press and wrapped in hand-made paper from Xishuangbanna! 400 grams per cake (7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong)
