2017 Yunnan Sourcing "Autumn Teng Tiao Old Tree" Raw Pu-erh tea cake

Teng Tiao village (Rattan village) is located in Jing Gu county of Simao.  The leaves used for our production come from the oldest stand of trees in the area (150-300 years old).  The tea was picked in first week of October during the dry cool sunny weather that follows the end of the monsoon season in southern Yunnan.

This is a unique tea because the cha qi is clean and strong but not overpowering.  There is a nice grass and floral aroma in the first sips and very noticeable cooling sensation in the mouth and throat followed by a slight mouth-watering feeling from the tongue.  The successive infusions become stronger and then even out.  The leaves and stems are very burly and attest to their old tree origins.
