A 2006 maocha from ancient trees of the region, skillfully pressed in 2013. Stored in Kunming, Yunnan.

An excellent tea! Thick large leaves, the taste mellowed in greeness through ageing. Rounded flavour and a comforting warmth. Giving plenty of vibrancy in the leaves and the tea soup with a long lasting flavour. Complex flavour notes through infusions.
