Description

Exceptionally clean processing and fresh, pure taste with a healthy bitterness (ku wei) that transforms quickly into a long huigan. This area is right beside Lao Banzhang (a few km (<4km)) and often illicitly sold in Lao Banzhang village, so for those of you familiar with this area, you can expect something similar.

The cake is composed of 100% old tree material from trees around 3-400 years old & entirely hand processed. The leaves are slightly smaller this year due to the dry weather conditions, but display very good flavour.
