In Yunnan Province, the red soil is enriched with iron, so Pu'er tea also contains this valuable mineral, which is beneficial for the human body. Tea from this province contains more polyphenolic organic compounds, which are the most powerful antioxidants. Shu Pu'er has a beneficial effect on the health of the stomach and digestion in general.

LAO MAN ER SHU PU'ER BRICK 2003
ORIGIN
Lao Man Er Mountain is located in Man Er village, Menghai, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China. Local 'mountain tea' has been cultivated by the Bulang people for over 1,300 years. Located at an altitude of 1700 meters above sea level, ancient tea plantations consist of old trees with an area of 667 square meters.
This tea is the pearl of our collection and one of the best in its “weight category”! Made according to all the canons of the old school, this tea consists of large leaves of old trees, that went through medium fermentation followed by traditional Hong Kong storage for 15+ years! Having gone this long way, tea has turned into a masterpiece. Not available to the masses, this tea is exclusively for connoisseurs of authentic pu'er and old tea.
ORGANOLEPTICS
450g of stunning tea leaves, expertly processed and professionally stored. The brick consists mainly of 7-8 grade large leaves, and a small number of young buds only on the surface of the brick. The pressing is medium, the tea is easy to share into layers and individual leaves. The aroma of the dried leaves is fresh, woody, and earthy. Once warmed, the aroma intensifies and the sweetness explodes with beets and betel nuts! After rinsing with water, the aroma develops into bakery motifs with notes of roasted nuts, pastry, and custard.
Clean, cognac-colored infusion has a thick and mellow texture, a sweet long aftertaste with bright freshness in the mouth! The taste is mellow, multifaceted, and deep, with nutty, woody notes and Chen Xiang (“the fragrance of time”), inherent in the “correct” old tea. The taste develops gradually and produces a large number of infusions. With longer steeping, it is enhanced by woody notes, evoking associations of an old noble tree. Not a single note about the fermentation process or storage conditions. The tea is drunk easily and with pleasure, gradually plunging you into a calm and balanced state. This tea is completely ready for brewing, and also capable of evolving and turning into something exquisite and unique!
True masterpiece of high-quality raw material, professional processing, and careful traditional Hong Kong storage.
