Sixty-eight years of accumulated craft has resulted in the classic quality of Dayi Pu-erh tea. \"Classic\" fresh and ripe Pu-erh cakes were produced using traditional Dayi techniques and production formula. Their flavor is strong and balanced with rich, layered kougan (mouth sensation) and ample yunwei (lasting flavor). This tea is named \"Classic\" because it represents Menghai Tea Factory's many years of accumulated tea producing art. \"Classic\" ripe Pu-erh tea possesses the following special traits: tight, evenly woven strips of tea; oily smooth reddish-brown color; fine gold hair spread evenly across the surface; full, sweet, and mellow flavor with smooth \"kougan\"; and the clear aroma of age. \"Classic\" fresh Pu-erh is marked by: plump buds and leaves with visible fine hair; evenly distributed, tightly woven strips of tea; oily smooth yellow-green color; bright golden yellow tea liquor; rich and mellow flavor with strong astringency and a sweet, saliva-promoting quality; and pure, unadulterated fragrance.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eProduct Name: Da Jing Dian (aka Big Classic)\u003cbr\u003eNet Weight: 357 grams\u003cbr\u003eIngredients: Blended Raw Pu-erh tea\u003cbr\u003eProduced by Menghai Tea Factory\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Menghai Tea Factory","offers":[{"title":"357 Gram Cake","offer_id":30690367046,"sku":"","price":99.25,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"25 Gram Sample","offer_id":30690367110,"sku":"","price":9.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/9817\/products\/2008_mh_dajingdian_raw_bao.jpg?v=1480879372"},{"product_id":"2009-menghai-wei-zui-yan-raw-pu-erh-tea-cake","title":"2009 Menghai \"Wei Zui Yan\" Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake","description":"A new recipe from Menghai introduced in 2006, \"Wei Zui Yan\" (aka Strongest Flavor) emphasizes a strong taste with good aging potential.
