Jing Mai Ancient Tree Raw Pu Erh Tea Cake

Available from B. Fuller's Mortar & Pestle when we last checked. Sold from the shop’s own store; the price there is the one that counts.

Ancient Tree, also called Gu Shu Pu Erh, is harvested from 500 years old trees growing on the protected lands of the Jing Mai Mountains. The roots of these ancient trees pull minerals and nutrients from deep in the forest floor producing leaves with very complex flavors. Our Ancient Tree Pu Erh has a subtle sweetness balanced by a soft astringency and has an green olive and orchid-like fragrance and taste, and is ready to be enjoyed now or collected for further aging. 2014 harvest.
