Jingmai Mountain is situated in Lancang County of Simao (now renamed Pu'Er) prefecture.  Jing Mai teas are incredibly unique as a large portion of the tea trees are a unique natural hybrid of Assamica that are referred to as Mixed-Leaf varietal (中小叶种). They are tippy, with smaller and shorter leaf/bud sets than pure assamica.  This adds to the sweetness and aroma of the tea immensely. 

Our production is from Wan Mu area of Jing Mai and age of trees varies from 60 to 200 years.  The trees grow naturally and are not sprayed.

Warm profile, caramel and rosemary

"Got several samples of young sheng from YS. This one has a nice warming profile. Would describe it as caramel and rosemary. Also can confirm the hint of menthol that Andrew already pointed out. However, this tea was the one I enjoyed the least out of my oder. Despite its relatively affordable price I do not think that the price to quality ratio is particularly good. Id either go for the Spring Jingmai tea of that year despite it being almost double the price or go for a good value sheng of which YS offers a lot of good choices. Nevertheless a decent tea somewhere in that middle range between affordable and higher end teas. Personal rating 80/100 (based on blind tasting)"

Clean

"Clean, refreshing puerh with a tinge of menthol running through it. Enjoyed. Thank you for the sample!"

Andrew K. (5/5)

Just what I expected

"Light very clean tea, refreshing. Beautiful color. The wrapper is as extraordinary as the tea."

Bruce T. (5/5)

Wonderful!

"Looking to buy a tong of something that won't break the bank? Here it is. Incredibly clean without an astringent sip in the session. Judging by previous YS Jingmai cakes, this is set to become a classic."
