Description:

This tea came from Mangzhi mountain which is located in the west of Xiangming village Mengla county, and next to the Gedeng mountain. Mangzhi tea mountain once had a very glorious history, but suffered a setback in the local wars during the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Early spring harvest from wild arbor tea trees. Traditional “sha-qing” (kill-green) processing in wok and sun-dried. Select maocha was pressed by stone to this small pretty cake.

A pleasing depth of natural flavor and wild fruits, beautifully soft mouth feel, finishing with round and mellow aftertaste.

This tea is made in small quantities by Mingshan tea house, 7 cakes in one bamboo tong.

Firmly pressed cake in sizes Xiao Bing 200g. The taste is full, spicy, with a slight bitterness of wild tea trees. Hui Gan is very fast. Leaving pleasant, sweet aftertaste. Very stimulative tea. Very good choice. Purchased for $12,50.

Quotes

„There is also a lack of formal definition for "gu shu." Some say "gu shu" should only refer to trees over 300 years of age, that is left to grow tall, and not pruned back. But in reality, most "gu shu" trees are cultivated, which entails annual pruning to encourage regrowth & lower branches for easy picking. A lot of "gu shu" on the market comes from trees as young as 100 years old, some of which is as short as 1.5m high. But a 100 year old tea tree growing in the wild can also grow higher than 3m high. Eventually the government will legislate what classifies as "gu shu." Until then, let the buyer beware!“
