2014 Hai Lang Hao "Bu Lang Tribute Brick" Ripe Pu-erh Tea

Another high quality ripe pu-erh tea from Hai Lang! This is entirely Spring 2011 fermented wild arbor tea from Bu Lang area of Menghai. The tea was fermented in Menghai under the supervision of Xinghai tea factory in summer of 2011. The tea was then stored in Menghai until late 2014 when it was purchased and pressed by Hai Lang. The brewed tea has some bitterness in the beginning but quickly gives way to a rich and malty taste that quickly becomes sweet in the mouth. The tea is lubricating to the mouth and throat and there is a subtle but noticeable cha qi. Tea soup is burgundy and clear, thick and viscous. 1kg per brick. Sample available.
