Gold Winner of the 2009 China Wild Tea Puerh Gold Award 

Wild arbor trees aged around 300 years old on Yiwu Mountain, processed and dry stored in the Lan Cang Village.  A classic representation of a well-aged puerh with big fruit notes and refreshing astringency to create balance.  Golden liquor with medium viscosity and deep sweetness.  Beautiful, long, roped leaves and traditionally sun-dried to perfection.
