2018 Ba Da He Song Old Arbor Sheng Puerh - 2 oz
This cake is made from old arbor materials from Ba Da, Menghai region. It brews up a crisp sheng with a strong Ku (bitterness) and fast, minty hui gan. Notes of citrus peel, minerals, light honeysuckle are consistent throughout, and a growing sweetness with every infusion. A very nice refreshing, somewhat austere tea - I would liken it to a Sancerre if teas were like wine. Great for Spring and Summer - very cooling and has an expansive cha qi.
2016 Mengsong Shan Bamboo Cured Sheng Puerh - 2 oz
This special raw puerh is made from Autumn harvest Mengsong old tree material and prepared in a traditional Dai fashion by steaming fresh leaf, packing it into hollow bamboo tubes and roasted over a fire. The soup is rich, sweet and full bodied characteristic of Fall puerh teas, with nice floral and light tobacco notes.

2007 Bo Nan Shan Sheng Puerh - 2 oz
This is a wonderful Spring harvest, semi-aged raw puerh from Bao Shan, Yunnan China. Aged in Lincang for several years gave it a touch of the 'wet storage' which accelerated the natural fermentation process yet it remains crystal clean in flavor and clarity. Complex and layered with notes of dried fruits (apricots and dates), flowers and chenpi (aged orange peel) and minerals with an underlying woodsy, refreshing bittersweet character. So delicious!
2007 Nannou Shan Spring Silver Tips Sheng Puerh - 2 oz
