Ku Zhu Mountain is near Wenshan village about 7 kilometers southeast of Jing Gu town in Pu'er prefecture (previously known as Simao).

Ku Zhu mountain tea is strong and is much more bitter than their sweeter Yang Ta (another Jing Gu area) counterpart.  The taste is something a marriage between Jing Gu and Mengku teas, but entirely unique.  From 100+ year old tea trees growing naturally.  A premium wild arbor tea with excellent aging possibilities!

 

400 grams per cake, 7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong

April harvest (only 70 kilograms produced)

Robust and complex

"Spearmint, fresh herbs, cacao nibs, pine wood, camphor, slight floral sweetness, robust body, very thick texture. It also has a potent cha qi, wow! When I had it for the first time, I was very tired and had only slept 6 hours the night before, but by the 7th steep I felt an invigorating and warming burst of energy flow through my body that made me feel like I had the energy of a good night sleep haha! What a great tea! (I had this tea in september 2025 so those tasting notes is from the leaves being aged for 9 years)"
