In celebration of the year of the pig, Dayi has created this 'Brother, the Wind Rises' cake with a beautiful wrapper. This tea cake offers a red and thick tea soup with a caramel sweet fragrance.
The Wind Rises
If there's a pu erh tea, that's worth to own, just for its theme, it might be this one. Though the Dayi Factory doesn't confirm this explicitly, the name of this cake is likely inspired by the Japanese animation movie 'The Wind Rises'. The themes of enduring love and friendship, even during difficult times, are express through the design and taste of this cake:
"As time passes, throughout the journey of our lives, there's you and me, mellow and sweet."
