This is a pure Kunming aged loose leaf ripe pu-erh tea from Menghai aged in a basket! 20 years of aging has given this tea an incredibly unique and complex taste. Dried fruit. camphor wood. five spices and tobacco. There is also a “chen xiang” that can only really be described as “aged taste”. which is unique to aged pu-erh and is particularly prominent in dry aged pu-erh teas! I highly recommend this tea! Don’t take my word for it. get a small amount and experience it for yourself! Each basket contains roughly 500 grams of tea! 1999 Basket Aged Loose Leaf 1999 Basket Aged Loose Leaf 1999 Basket Aged Loose Leaf This tea cake is composed entirely of Gong Ting (Tribute) grade ripe pu-erh tea (the smallest most potent leaf size). The tea was aged for 11 years in Guangdong dry storage condition and has developed a mature subtle taste and abundant cha qi. It’s got slight bitterness up front and then smooth minty sweetness with camphor aroma. The tea soup is super clear burgundy beauty.
