Description
A classic Shu Pu-erh from the renowned Lao Tongzhi series — "Shen Shan Lao Shu", old trees from remote mountains. Deep, mellow, and comforting: notes of dark cocoa, dried jujube, and warm wood with a smooth, sweet finish. A reliable everyday ripe Pu-erh with genuine depth.
Why This Tea Is Special
Lao Tongzhi "Shen Shan Lao Shu" (Old Trees from Remote Mountains) Shu Pu-erh expresses the character of Menghai County: careful processing, clear terroir, and a profile that unfolds infusion after infusion. This is a tea meant for an attentive session rather than a quick cup.
