2020 QianYun “Ban Zhang Wu Zhai” (5 Villages of Banzhang region) Cake 357g Puerh Raw Tea Sheng Cha

Description

This 2020 “Ban Zhang Wu Zhai” Sheng Puerh cake is crafted from select tea leaves sourced from the esteemed five villages of the Banzhang region: Old Banzhang, New Banzhang, Ba Ka Nan, Ba Ka Long, and Lao Man E. These villages are renowned for producing some of the most robust and flavorful puerh teas.

Appearance:

The cake is composed of tightly rolled, resilient tea threads adorned with silver tea hairs that have gracefully aged, adding a darker, more mature hue compared to fresh puerh leaves.

Liquor:

Brews to a clear, bright liquor, showcasing a light amber tone that reflects the quality and clarity of the tea.

Flavor Profile:

Expect a bold, intense bitterness balanced by a rich depth that reflects the complexity of Banzhang region teas. The tea’s strong character transitions beautifully into a lasting Huigan (returning sweetness) that stimulates saliva production, adding to its complexity.

Aroma and Experience:

The tea carries a lingering, multifaceted flavor profile with subtle floral notes that intermingle with its bold base, offering a uniquely layered tasting experience. The aftertaste is persistent, leaving a memorable impression.

Storage:

Naturally stored in Guangzhou, which has enhanced the tea’s smoothness and depth over time.
