"Dian Shui Liu Xiang" means "A Little Water, Lasting Aroma." This lovely ripe cake has been aged for 7 years in tropical Guangdong province of China. The tea has matured into a complex, sweet and aromatic affair. Would benefit from additional aging but can easily be enjoyed now. Xinghai Tea Factory is one of the original early Menghai tea factories that specialized in Ripe Pu-erh tea "wo dui fermentation." 357 grams per cake ** Some wrappers may be bug-bitten with little holes in the paper. There may also be some dust between the wrapper and the cake. Rinse tea once or twice briefly before drinking! If you are squeamish please don't order this tea!
