This is an aged maocha, from ancient, wild trees in Wuliang Shan (not planted by humans). The trees average around 800-1000 years old. The leaves naturally taste very thick and smooth, with honey notes and with a deceptively strong qi. I think this tea will challenge some people’s perceptions of what a good tea should be.
