2018 "Bing Dao" Ancient Tree Raw Pu'er Tea Cake

The ancient tea garden in Bingdao Village is a significant origin of Yunnan large-leaf Pu'er tea, with records dating back to 1485. Many Pu'er teas from villages across Yunnan were transplanted and cultivated here. Today, the tea produced in this region is renowned for its smooth and gentle taste, earning the title of "Queen of Tea," and has become a benchmark for top-quality Pu'er tea.

The village is located in Mengku Town, Lincang City, Yunnan Province, at an altitude of approximately 1,600–2,000 meters, making it a quintessential high-mountain tea region. Benefiting from exceptional geographical conditions and a pristine ecological environment, local tea farmers uphold traditional tea tree management practices, prioritizing the protection of ancient tea trees and the preservation of their natural surroundings. As a result, the Pu'er tea produced here has become a benchmark for ecological tea, celebrated for its authenticity and quality.

In the spring of 2018, we partnered with local tea farmers to hand-pick fresh leaves from ancient tea trees over 100 years old, creating this exclusive batch of "Bingdao" Ancient Tree Raw Pu'er Tea Cake. Released in limited quantities each year, the remaining tea cakes are carefully stored to continue aging and developing their unique character over time.

After seven years of aging, the initial astringency of the young tea has mellowed. Thanks to its authentic origin and meticulous, scientific storage conditions, the tea has transformed into a well-balanced and harmonious flavor profile. The tea liquor is vibrant and lively, offering a delicate, smooth texture with notes of rock sugar sweetness, a refreshing cooling sensation, and an uplifting, lingering aroma.
