This bamboo leaf wrapped tea is a meticulously fermented ripe tea from a prominent Menghai area tea factory (Ye Zhuang Shuang Li).  Composed of a blend of Meng Song and Bu Lang fermented material gives this a heavy thick taste that is not so far removed from the material's origins.

Fermented in 2012, this brick has aged just slightly, but enough that the fermented flavor is not over-powering.  Further aging will massively improve this high quality material.

Each bamboo leaf pack has two 250 gram bricks inside.  The default quantity type is 1 pack (500 grams).  You may also choose to purchase one 250 gram brick without the bamboo leaf packing.   For Australian customers, the bamboo packing will be removed since we cannot send bamboo wrapped teas "down under".

Overall rating: 5.0 / 5 from 6 reviews.

CLASSICAL TASTE

"After several months I decided to open the bamboo pack. The taste is mild, clean and pure, some sweetness and some chocolate bitterness. The classical taste of really good puerh: nothing more, nothing less."

Love it!

"I get a sample of this unexpectedly added to my order and loved this. Nice, strong, ripe pu-erh flavor with that basement/cave taste that I love! It's also a great price! If you love ripe pu-erhs as I do, try this. I'm really considering ordering this again. My only hesitation is that I've only tried 16 of the ripe pu-erhs so far and I may love trying new teas more than anything. But I think this is my favorite of the 16 ripe pu-erhs I've tried so far: 2015 Yunnan Sourcing “Nuo Mi Xiang” Ripe Puerh Tea and Sticky Rice Herb 2015 Yunnan Sourcing “Tian Tang Cao” Ripe Puerh Tea and Jiaogulan 2013 Yunnan Sourcing Ripe Puerh and Snow Chrysanthemum Tea Mini Cake Mengku “Ripe Puerh Tea” Roasted in Aromatic Bamboo 2011 Yunnan Sourcing “Cha Tou Sheng Yun” Ripe Pu-erh Tea Brick 2014 Yunnan Sourcing Menghai Lao Cha Tou Ripe Pu-erh tea brick 2013 Yunnan Sourcing Blue Snake Cha You Ripe Pu-erh Tea Brick 2014 Menghai Lao Cha Tou Brick * Ripe Pu-erh Tea Sticky Rice Scent Ripe Pu-erh Mini Tuo Cha * Nuo Mi Xiang 2013 Yunnan Sourcing Premium Ripe Pu-erh Tea Mini Tuo Gong Ting Pu-erh in Tangerine "Golden Horse 8685" Ripe Tea 2007 Menghai Yue Chen Yue Xiang Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake 2008 Menghai Qi Zi Zhi Ge Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake 2011 Menghai “Xin Hai Bai Nian” Premium Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake 2013 Menghai “Dragon Pillar” Premium Ripe Pu-erh Tea Cake 2012 Ye Zhuang Shuang Li “Yu Gong Jin Zhuan” Ripe Pu-erh Tea Brick"

very smooth. dark chocolate.

"Delicious! I bought this to put away and forget about, and bring out again when it had aged a little more, but couldn't resist trying some first. First cup very smooth, mellow, 80% cocoa dark chocolate kind of taste. Lightens nicely."

Unexpected bonus

"Got a sample of this with my first order and am enjoying it very much. Gave a quick rinse and first steep has a very rich and soft taste. I have several more puerhs yet to try but am tempted to order more of this. Excellent customer service and a nice lagniappe."

This is a solid and

"This is a solid and affordable tea. There is not that much complexity and depth in it, it is somewhat earthy (in a nice way) and has a coffee-like bitterns if you steep it just a bit longer. I did not detect any fishiness in it. It lasts about 10 infusions, first 5-6 are very dark and intense and than it suddenly goes mellow. I'll see what will happen with it once it airs out properly."
