Year: 2005
Weight: cca 400 grams

Details:
smooth, sweet, thick, very nice stomach feeling, with energy slowly rising and heating up the whole body, tea soup is packed with flavours, in certain brews various herbs like notes I suppose attributed to Jiangmai leaves, even spices popping up

this is an interesting blended pu-erh cake of Liming factory  Baojiang brand. There were used three major tea mountains tea leaves. They come from Yiwu, Lao Banzhang and Jiangmai. Tea leaves used were all from arbour ancient (gushu) tea trees.  The mentioned three mountains each gives different characteristics to the final blend. Yiwu tea leaves give sugary, soft, delicate, sweet-smelling tea soup, Lao Banzhang adds its strong, potent qi and Jiangmai covers it with sweet fragrance
