From the Mengyang Guoyan Tea Factory, this lovely Banna Aged ripe pu-erh tea cake is perfect to enjoy right now!  Dong Guoyan is an ex-Menghai tea factory blender who started the Mengyang Guoyan tea factory in 2003.  The tea factory is located in Mengyang town north of Jinghong in Xishuangbanna and the material for this wet piling batch was procured in the Youle area.  Dong Guoyan also oversaw the wet piling of this lovely tea.  The tea has been aged in Banna in a storage condition for 12 years.  The result is an ultra smooth ripe pu-erh tea with a creamy aged taste.  The tea produces a deep burgundy hued tea soup and can be infused 12-15 times!

Highly recommended for fans of super smooth but complex and textured ripe pu-erhs!

Один из лучших шу

"Потрясающий чай, хороший мясистый лист, богатый вкус. Есть что-то химическое (in a good way), ментолово-скипидарное. Интересно. Брал 50г, обязательно возьму целый блин, пока есть."

Not a fan. Lacks depth.

The best so far

"For me, this is the best ripe puerh i have tasted to date... Balance, smooth, no smell, last several steep, not as full bodies as other ripe puerh but this is a very good ripe puerh!!!!! when the time comes, ill probably buy a cake... super highly recommended."

A pleasant surprise

"Expected cigars and tobacco but we got notes of a sweet birthday cake and warm vanilla frosting with a velvety, thick texture."

Patrick (5/5)

Excellent mature ripe tea.

"Sampling my cake based upon a recomendation. The cake is light to medium packed. The leaves are small when rendered. The flavor has s a nice well-balanced smoothnes and sweetness to it. A nice mild aroma that corresponds to the flavors. Not weak and definite not robust. It has a nice balanced flavor that shows a really good aged ripe tea's potential. Your mouth welcomes this tea and it is very enjoyable after several renderings. It is an excellent tea to have in your library and share with friends who want to enjoy really good pu-erh."

Superb team, mellow and rich

"Superb team, mellow and rich taste. Yunnan Sourcing is very easy to do business with and I recommend them to any fan of good tea."

This might be the best

"This might be the best Puer Tea I have purchased from Yunnan Sourcing. It steeps to a nice, rich amber and tastes smooth. I only ordered a tiny sample but will be buying the whole thing soon. One of those big discs will last for ages, so its worth the money. It is very good! Order a small sample and I'm sure you'll agree and buy a big one like I am. Can't wait to get it so I can drink more!"
