Description
Produced in early April 2016 from Menghai Large Leaf Variety tea trees growing in the Pasha region, Menghai County. The source describes a well-forested environment with seed-grown trees around a century old, harvested to a one bud with two or three leaves standard. The tea is noted for its sweet, full-bodied liquor, predominantly floral aroma, and excellent endurance across many infusions. Since production, this tea has been carefully stored in Chengdu by producer and collector You Cai, providing a shared storage history for comparison with the other teas in this month's selection.

Shipped in September 2026
