ABOUT
This tea is sourced from tea trees over 250 years old, thriving at altitudes of over 2,100 meters above sea level. This unique environment contributes to the tea's robust qualities, enhancing its energy (qi) and health benefits. Each cake is meticulously pressed into a 200g format, allowing for significant aging potential and making it a fascinating tea to explore.
ORIGIN
The history of Bing Dao tea dates back centuries, intertwining with the traditions of the Naxi ethnic minority who have inhabited the region for generations. The area was historically a part of ancient tea horse routes, which facilitated trade between Yunnan and Tibet. This trade not only spread tea consumption across borders but also established Bing Dao as a crucial stop for high-quality Pu'Er tea. The Bai and Naxi people cultivated tea trees in Bing Dao, often planting them in the wild. The area is home to ancient tea trees, some over a thousand years old, contributing to the region's reputation for quality. In the early 2000s, Bing Dao tea gained international recognition, attracting tea enthusiasts and collectors and further solidifying its esteemed status.
Bing Dao is situated in the mountainous terrain of the Lijiang region, characterized by high elevations that range from 1,500 to 2,200 meters. This high-altitude environment and the region’s subtropical climate create ideal conditions for tea cultivation. The tea gardens benefit from nutrient-rich soil and abundant rainfall, promoting the healthy growth of the tea plants. The region's biodiversity is also a significant factor in the unique flavors of Bing Dao tea. Covered with diverse flora, including ancient wild tea trees. The mountainous landscape provides a natural habitat for various wildlife, further enhancing the ecological balance that supports tea cultivation.
Raw Bing Dao Pu'Er tea is celebrated for its vibrant and complex flavor. It often exhibits floral notes and a sweetness that evolves over time. The mouthfeel is smooth, and the tea typically has a clean finish with light astringency. The aroma of Bing Dao tea is robust and fragrant, often likened to fresh greens, flowers, and even honey. With time, the raw Pu-erh develops deeper, more complex aromas that can include earthy and woody notes. Like all Pu-erh teas, Bing Dao tea improves with age. High-quality Bing Dao raw tea can develop rich complexity and depth over the years, attracting collectors and aficionados who appreciate the aging process.

SHENG PU'ER FROM BING DAO ANCIENT TREES 2014
ORIGIN
Bing Dao is one of the most famous ancient tea tree areas, located in the very north of Mengku, Lincang, Yunnan. The history of this tea started at least 500 years ago when the Dai ethnic group started to cultivate tea on this land. Due to its high quality, special character, and sweet taste, this tea was appreciated by the local aristocracy and was drunk during international events. All these aspects made tea from Bing Dao very famous. Nowadays, Bing Dao is one of the most expensive raw materials for sheng pu'er production.
I'm excited to present you these unique 200g cakes, which are made from the leaves of 200-300 years old tea trees. An authentic sheng pu'er with a sweet, deep taste, unique flavour, and great ageing potential. I hope you will enjoy this tea as much as I do. Traditionally stone-pressed, these cakes are easy to disassemble into individual tea leaves. The highest quality spring raw material and the "one bud and two leaves" combination guarantee gentle and, at the same time, deep taste.
