This year we were very lucky to be able to get about 7 kilograms of tea from a small grove of wild trees growing near Bang Dong village in Lincang.  First flush tea was picked over the period of about 2 weeks.  After processing into mao cha and harmonizing (the teas picked on different days are all blended together), the tea leaves were steamed and pressed into just 35 cakes!

The tea brews up a thick full-bodied tea soup that is incredibly complex.  Sweet, bitter, lightly floral with umami and the slightest feeling of brine.  Steeps many many times!   An incredibly balanced tea with strong cha qi! 

Net Weight:  200 grams per cake (7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong)
Harvest time:  April 2020
Harvest Area:  Bang Dong county, Lincang Prefecture
Total Production amount:  7 kilograms (35 cakes)
