Taste characteristics:
Baiying Mountain in Lincang is home to thousands of acres of old-growth tea gardens. The leaves of this tea were picked from these naturally grown ancient tea trees (many as old as 1000-years-old). The dry leaves of this tea are thinner and darker than other pu-erh tea leaves because of a special variety native to this mountain called Black Strip (hei tiaozi). This tea is silky and soft, yet intense and complex. It is one of those rare teas that causes one to want to be alone, allowing the tea to transport one to a faraway place where a gentle spring breeze blows and daily stress falls away. This tea will beckon you back again and again.

Our Response:

I shared your comments with Master Chan. He was very pleased. Master Chan is tireless when it comes to searching for good tea. He once told me his biggest asset is his discerning palate.

Just finished a cake

By Sylvan Schneider

Just finished this lovely cake. I enjoyed this tea, so very refreshing and clean. The description of â€œpristineâ€�? would come to mind when drinking this tea and I found it to be relaxing with a sense of good focus. Definitely a cooling tea for hot days, it helped me to cool off when drinking it. Very high quality tea that I was happy with.
