SUMMARY
Type: Raw Pu'er Tea
Origin: Bulang Mountain, Menghai, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China
A semi aged Raw Pu'er made from a mix of Spring 2011, 2012 and 2014 leaves from Bulang Shan, pressed into cakes in 2014. Having been aged for a few years since its initial production has allowed this tea to begin developing a more mellow and mature flavour, especially when compared to younger, fresher Raw Pu'er teas.
TASTING NOTES
A smooth and luscious tea with a herbaceous character and cooling hints of menthol. That signature Raw Pu'er bitterness is still present but has since matured and mellowed out with age.

STORAGE
Proper tea storage is super important. Improper storage leads to flat, flavourless and potentially weird tasting tea. So as a rule of thumb, keep your tea leaves in an airtight container (the less air inside the better) and away from heat, light, moisture and strong odours.
