Origin: This 2005 LiMing "Yue Chen Yue Xiang" (The Older The Better) Cake hails from the renowned tea-growing region of Meng Hai, boasting a legacy of expertise and craftsmanship. Crafted with ripe Puerh shou cha, this 357g cake has undergone years of natural aging, patiently developing a nuanced character.
Appearance: After years of patient storage, the tea emerges with tight and neat threads, showcasing the care taken in processing. While young buds and tiny leaves are interwoven, the presence of large stems adds a touch of rustic charm.
Liquor: Upon brewing, the cake yields a clear and bright liquor, hinting at the purity and quality of the leaves within.
Taste: This offering breaks the mold of typical shou puerh. Instead of the familiar soy sauce notes associated with heavier fermentation, the medium-level fermentation here allows for a unique evolution.
Smooth sweetness intertwines with refreshing notes, reminiscent of aged sheng puerh tea.
The lingering aftertaste, long and pleasant, evokes a sense of soothing comfort.
