MAO CHA FROM BAI YING ANCIENT TREES 2019
ORIGIN
Bai Ying Shan is one of the Wu Liang Shan mountains, located in the Lincang area, Yunnan province. This region is famous for its wild ancient trees grown here for thousands of years. The unique climate, high altitude, soil, humidity, and a lot of sunlight create an excellent environment for the growth of tea trees, which gives this tea a particularly special character and taste. The tea leaves from this area are famous for their sweetness and deeply complex taste.
Mao Cha translates as a "rough tea" and means that this tea is unfinished and is in an intermediate stage of production. This term is used for a tea material which is ready to be steamed and pressed in case of Sheng Pu'Er production. This type of tea is used for blending and further storage before being pressed into 'cakes'.
ORGANOLEPTICS
Beautiful sun-dried spring tea leaves from ancient trees: this tea is an amazing representative of authentic sheng pu'er. The taste of Bai Ying will develop with time and please us with its unique wild and deeply complex taste. The dry tea leaves have a sweet sugary aroma with exotic fruit notes, something between passion fruit and pineapple. After rinsing, the aroma transforms into honey, mineral, and herbal notes. The tea has a sweet, floral taste with notes of wood and mushrooms. A mild and deep taste develops during the tea session and becomes more mushroomy at the end. A very sweet and long-lasting aftertaste will definitely satisfy any pu'er tea connoisseur. I'm very glad to present you with an opportunity to try this amazing tea for a very special price!
