This is a small production pressed by an Yi Wu tea grower in Luo Shui Dong Village.  The tea is entirely 2003 Spring Harvest from wild growing tea trees and bushes.  

Aged in both Yi Wu and then Kunming, this has developed a nice aged taste but without losing it's regional terroir.  There is a still a good amount of astringency and a touch of bitter to counter the fruity sweetness that this tea has.  There is good body and nice active mouth feeling that builds with each successive infusion.  Cha Qi is surprisingly potent, but not overpowering at all.

357 Grams per cake

** Some wrappers may be bug-bitten with little holes in the paper. There may also be some dust between the wrapper and the cake. Rinse tea once or twice briefly before drinking! If you are squeamish please don't order this tea!

Nice.

"This tea is good stuff, very clean aged quality. It's fruity and sweet, as described, but the wild material lends an impressive amount of herbaceous intrigue. Pleasantly energizing."

— Stephen (5/5)

A nice aged Pu

"I enjoyed this one, reminds me of backpacking in the PNW, wonderful hui gan. Mushroomy woodsy and cooling. The flavor of the tea was predominant and no overpowering storage flavor present. Somehow after drinking the tea the flavor and aroma stuck with me and continued to play with my senses for a good couple hours. As usual Scott and Xiao produced something clean and enjoyable. At this point I am confident I could enjoy just about anything in the YS catalog. The only producer I can say that about of the many I've done business with. I'm now reluctant to go anywhere else."
