Description

A tea with true staying power, this Baiying Shan raw puer picks up in the first 3 brews and then remains consistent, with great fragrance and sugary sweetness that lasts in the mouth and throat. Put it down for a few minutes and you’ll still be tasting this one.

Made from big tree material growing at over 2000 meters, this tea also has a smooth texture and thick feelings.

While astringency was already light in previous years, this version seems even less astringent, but with a gentle kuwei (pleasant bitterness) more focus on the floral side of things fragrance-wise.

We highly recommend this tea for anyone looking for a standout Lincang tea. While it may not be typical for the region, it represents a good bridge to the other side of the Lancang river.
