Description

This 100 gram tuo [nest shaped] tea from Lancang Tea Factory was first produced in the mid 1980′s under the trademark jianshen [健身] which translates literally as “fitness”. The brand was created as a way to promote Lancang county teas and it was promoted as a healthy tea, hence the name. Probably the best bargain tea on our site. Ideal for the budget minded drinker, as this tea nears a decade of age and is economically priced. Still very strong in flavor and character, with burly wood and tobacco notes scotch drinkers will enjoy.
