2005 Nan Qiao "Liming Impression" Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake
Here we have a classic blended Menghai recipe cake from the old school Nan Qiao Tea Factory. Potent first flush of spring 2005 tea from Menghai (Bulang and Mengsong) was blended together, pressed, and then stored in a dry storage condition in Guangzhou until now.
The result is multi-faceted complex tea with a strong aged character. Some bitterness up front with a strong and long sweet fruity hui gan. The tea soup is thick and orange-red in color.
This cake commemorates the 50th Anniversary of the Liming Agricultural Collective, a prominent Menghai area rural cooperative from which many of the early pu-erh tea factories sprung.
