70th Anniversary Commemorative Pu-erh Tea Cake

This tea was produced in 2015 to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the victory in the War of Resistance Against Japan. It was pressed from ancient tree tea leaves by five local tea enthusiasts in collaboration with tea farmers, making it a collectible tea cake.

One distinctive feature of this tea region is the dark color of the tea leaves' surface. After sun-drying, the leaves take on a shiny, deep black appearance, earning them the local name "Big Black Leaf." In contrast, the tea soup is bright and precise, offering a vivid juxtaposition to the leaves' dark hue. The taste is rich and smooth, with a quick, pronounced sweetness that lingers. Upon entering the throat, it creates a broad, pleasant mouthfeel without any astringency.

After nine years of storage and aging, the tea's texture has become even more mellow and refined. Aging has introduced subtle woody notes, a delicate honeyed aroma, and a rich, layered flavor profile, delivering a truly complex and satisfying experience.

Please note that the packaging of aged tea cakes may naturally develop creases or signs of wear over time. This is entirely normal and does not affect the tea's quality or flavor. Instead, these marks serve as a testament to the tea's storied journey through time. As Pu-erh tea ages, it deepens in complexity, character, showcasing its truly unique charm.
