2007 Mengku “Mu Shu Cha” Raw 500g
2007 marks the third year of production for S.Mengku’s “Mu Shu Cha” tea cake. Mu Shu (Mother Tree) is a premium cake composed entirely of first flush spring material take from just one region of Shuangjiang county of Lincang. While the trees are not ancient, they are old and grow in the natural fashion without being topped. The altitude of this particular tea garden is about 1800 meters above sea level which is an optimum height for Pu-erh.Each cake is stone-compressed and will easily pry apart without excessive leaf breakage. The raw material is hand-picked and is composed of mainly whole intact leaf and bud on stems. Brewing this tea is a real pleasure, full of Cha Qi but not without bitterness and a pleasant after-taste.
