Vintage 2012. Robust and nuanced. Plum and floral notes dominate. The decorative wrapping is designed for special occasions like weddings and graduations, with the intention that both will be long-lasting and fruitful.

Enjoy it now for a celebration, or save it to mark the next 10 years.

This exquisite tea comes from Jingmai Mountain in Yunnan. The Dai people have been hand-picking the ancient tea trees for millennia, ensuring quality and continuing this time-honored tradition. In addition to producing teas with remarkable flavor and flexible steeping quality, the ancient tea trees thrive in a diverse forest that provides rich antioxidants and nutrients.

The tea farm lies along the ancient tea horse trade route, where people traded Chinese tea for Tibetan horses centuries ago. Transported across treacherous passes carried by people on foot, the tea fermented, developing layers of complexity.

Although modern transportation moves puerh now, manufacturing processes rely on ancient methods. This ensures the complex flavor you've grown to love. Puerh tea today is just as exotic and nuanced as it was during ancient trade route days, and still boasts the rich flavors of the past.

Eli Q. ★★★★★

The plum notes are surprisingly forward for a green puerh, and the decorative wrapping made it feel extra special for our anniversary. This 2012 cake is aging beautifully with a smooth, lingering finish.

Eva P. ★★★★★

The floral notes hit first and then that deep plum sweetness settles in, really lovely for a slow morning brew. I bought two cakes, one to drink now and one to save for my sister's graduation in a few years. The decorative wrapper is too pretty to tear into, honestly.

Olivia ★★★★★

The 2012 vintage really shows in the plum notes, which came through smooth with a floral finish. I brewed it for my graduation dinner and the decorative wrapper made it feel like a proper keepsake.
