“Yay, I’m the first to write a note on this one! :) After discovering a Dragonwell at the back of the cupboard and drinking that, I suddenly had a craving for raw pu so I thought I would start one...” Read full tasting note

Description

An early production from Hai Lang Hao. The nei fei and wrapper bears the name of his shop (Ming Xiang Ya Yuan), which was used on his 2002 to 2006 productions. This tea cake was produced entirely from old plantation tea leaves picked during the first flush of spring 2004. The tea has been stored in Kunming since 2005 and has aged well in its Kunming dry-storage condition.

The taste is smooth with some spicy notes and high level of aroma. The tea liquor is clear and deep golden with hints of red developing in it. The aged flavor of Nan Nuo is floral and full in the mouth. The after-feeling of drinking this tea is pleasant stimulating long after the last cup!

Net Weight: 357 grams per cake (7 cakes per stack in a bamboo tong wrapper)

Produced by Ming Xiang Ya Yuan tea house (Hai Lang)
