Our 2011 "Little Bit of Red" production is made entirely from Menghai area material fermented in 2009. It's a variation on last year's production, with an addition of 30% "gong ting" grade tea to make it more tippy and flavorful!

Fermentation level is medium, so this cake still has a little bite to it and more room for improvement with aging. The fermentation "dui wei" flavor is mostly dissipated and the taste will gradually improve over the years to come. The fermented material was stored in Menghai for 1 1/2 years before being pressed into these 100 gram mini cakes.

Single cakes or tongs (7 cakes wrapped in bamboo leaf) are available for purchase

Хорошо сбалансированный плотный шу. Маленькие

"Хорошо сбалансированный плотный шу. Маленькие блины удобно дарить чайным новичкам. Закажу себе тун, если успею."

Purchase of Pu-Erh Tea

"Everything we received was fantastic! The flavors and strength off all of the teas we received were great. We drink it every morning for breakfast instead of coffee. We like the smaller compact tea purchasing options as we like to taste different teas before we buy a large amount of just one"

— Sydney H. (5/5)

Super smooth and drinkable

"I got this on the U.S. site but thought I would include my review here also. This is quickly becoming my favorite ripe pu-erh. It is amazingly rich and complex. Beautiful deep clear red tea soup. The aroma is full and rich with sweet molasses, old damp basement, autumn forest, camphor, complex and full. The flavor is likewise very rich with a lot of the same notes as the aroma. Very thick and rich, mouth coating, very lubricating, with a strong cha qi which I feel all through my chest and shoulders. The hui gan is long and pleasant. This is so smooth and drinkable. It is an incredible bargain."
