Overview

A deep and rich loose leaf pu-erh with thick mouthfeel. Well aged large leaf material from old wild trees impart a smooth and complex character to this more than 40 year old tea. Notes of camphor and plum lead to a cooling sensation in the mouth and a lingering aftertaste. This tea is something of a time machine. Origin: Yunnan, Xishuang Banna Region Harvest Period: 1970s
