2023 Lincang "Section A" Gushu Sheng / Raw Puerh Tea - 200g Cake

2023 Lincang "Section A" Gushu Sheng / Raw Puerh Tea - 200g CakeThis is such a lovely little tea! We've really fallen in love with this over the last couple years. It is so fresh and vibrant and approachable. It has an inviting floral, grassy aroma with hints of citrus and a memory of jasmine in the taste. It is a real pleaser. There is a lush vibrancy normally only associated with fresh young sheng the week of production that this tea maintains for a very long time. This has been part of our personal collection

This belongs to a special collection we commissioned in Jianshui to our exact specifications

It takes multiple tons of sheng puerh leaf material and several months to do right

Legend has it that this tea pick is so pure of heart that it doesn't open puerh cakes

In 2014 we created a shou puerh blend called Cloudy Days and it was quite a hit
