2017 "Big Snow Mountain" Wild Arbor Raw Pu Erh Cake

Entirely wild arbor tea from early spring 2017. The tea leaves for this tea cake were picked from 30 to 60 years old tea trees growing wild in the Da Xue Shan (Big Snow Mountain) area of Mengku. Big Snow Mountain is a high altitude area that tops out at 2700 meters above sea level. The tea used for this production is from an altitude of about 1800 meters on the southwest slope of Big Snow Mountain (west of Mengku town). Big Snow Mountain of Mengku although having the same name as the Yong De Big Snow Mountain area is in fact not the same and quite distinct. This Big Snow Mountain is not from old trees, but these small naturally growing trees are healthy and grow in a pure and unadulterated environment. The taste is strong and pungent, astringent and bitter, sweet and floral. The taste after drinking stays in the mouth and throat for a long time. Excellent choice for aging. Clean and pure.
