"Yiwu Ancient Tree Pure Material" is a raw Pu'er tea cake crafted in 2013 using over 100-year-old large-leaf ancient tea leaves from the Yiwu region of Yunnan. Most tea trees in Yiwu can be traced back to the late Ming and early Qing dynasties. Renowned for its high-altitude misty mountains, fertile soil, warm and rainy climate, and deep, well-aerated soil rich in organic matter, Yiwu offers an ideal ecological environment for tea tree growth.
Tea from this region is celebrated for its signature "fragrant aroma" and "soft water" qualities. The aroma is layered and penetrating, while the tea liquor is smooth, delicate, and mellow. Unlike teas from other Pu'er-producing regions, Yiwu tea is distinguished by its lack of noticeable bitterness or astringency.
Moreover, Yiwu's large-leaf tea trees contain lower catechin levels and higher glycoside content, enabling a faster aging and transformation process. This unique characteristic allows tea cakes to develop their aged charm more quickly, making them highly sought after by Pu'er tea collectors and enthusiasts—a top choice for connoisseurs.
Our 2013 Yiwu Ancient Tree Pure Material Pu'er Tea Cake, weighing 400 grams, breaks the traditional 357-gram standard. After 12 years of aging, the tea has become exceptionally smooth, with a multi-layered aroma that unfolds gradually, releasing the rich fragrance of aged tea and a complex, evolving flavor profile.
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'er tea ages, it deepens in complexity, character, showcasing its truly unique charm.
