2018 Fu Jin Two-Star Raw Pu Erh Tea Cake (357g)

Harvested in spring 2018 from the pristine high-altitude tea gardens of Menghai County, Yunnan, this raw pu erh tea cake is crafted from ancient, large-leaf tea trees that thrive in the region’s unique ecological environment. The tea is produced using traditional hand-picking methods, followed by careful processing that preserves its natural flavors.

The aroma of this pu erh is delightfully complex, with fruity and honeyed notes that evolve as the tea brews. The bright and golden liquor offers a smooth, full-bodied taste with a subtle bitterness that gives way to a lingering sweet aftertaste. The tea leaves are carefully pressed, ensuring they remain intact for optimal aging potential.

This pu erh is particularly well-suited for collectors, as it will continue to age and develop richer flavors over time, making it a valuable addition to any tea collection. Whether enjoyed fresh or stored for the future, it promises an unforgettable tea experience.
