This well-pressed round cake looks beautiful, and we can clearly see it's made from high quality material. Due to its uniform and medium tight compression, it's also effortless to pry with a tea knife.

Honey, rock sugar & cooling sensation

This raw pu erh tea is very pleasant to drink from the first steep: it features a honey aroma with a sweet aftertaste of rock sugar. There's hardly any bitterness and astringency, and perhaps the most special characteristic of all: it leaves a cooling sensation in the mouth, as if you're inhaling the cool outdoor air on a snowy day.

Affordable daily drinker

If you're looking for an affordable raw pu erh with an accessible taste, yet with plenty of complexity, we can highly recommend this tea cake. It will certainly become your next daily drinker.
