Legend has it that the first raw Pu'er was discovered more than a thousand years ago as the maocha bricks naturally fermented while strapped to horses on the long journey from Pu'er Town to Tibet along the Ancient Tea Horse Road. Raw Pu'er has a wonderful depth of character celebrated in the tea world. It is in this tea that the taste of Yunnan; the terroir and essence of the rich Menghai soil really comes through. A complex taste, it is both smooth and sweet with lingering hints of smoke and wood. The aroma is the clean fragrance of plants plucked from a healthy forest. The brew is clear burnt liquor, tinged with a golden amber hue.

Great tea, with extra gifts.
Fast delivery. And I got extra gifts from the seller that I didn't ecpected : a small piece of nice Xiaguan TUO tea and a tool for breaking tea. Most important, it is a great tea, aged in good color and shape and tasted great. I can still feel the aroma left in my mouse one hour after I drink it.
