Introduction: The 2022 ChenShengHao "Na Ka" (Naka) Brick pays homage to the rich tea heritage of the Na Ka tea mountain, nestled within the Meng Song tea region. Renowned for its distinctive orchid floral aroma, robust flavors, and potent Cha Qi, Na Ka tea is celebrated for its honey-like returning sweetness and exceptional potential for aging. This brick encapsulates the essence of Na Ka tea, offering a profound and memorable tea-drinking experience.
Premium Tea Leaves: Crafted from the leaves of ancient tea trees thriving in the fertile soil of Na Ka tea mountain, this brick features meticulously selected big tree tea leaves. ChenShengHao (CSH) ensures uncompromising quality by contracting tea plantations in Na Ka and sourcing only the freshest tea leaves from local farmers.
