A really nice raw puerh version of the same material used to make our other Lào Cai Deep Forest Teas.
 
This tea is made from wild growing non-Sinensis varietal trees at 2200-2500m. The leaves and stems are bright green with a light purple hue.
 
The raw material used to make this tea comes from a Camellia non-Sinensis tea tree varietal that has leaves that can be red/ purple/ dark green in color. It is still currently unknown as to exactly which Camellia varietal it is.
 
The dry leaf has a nutty, raisin, earthy fragrance and brews up slowly into a rich golden soup. This is a gentle tea with minimal bitterness and no astringency. I get notes of raisins, nuts, green vegetables, tree resin, forest leaves and honey.
 
Long sweet finish and a relaxing qi.
