Varietal
This tea is wild picked by Master Zhou in the oldest tea forest in the world. The leaves in this cake are called the Gu Hua harvest, from 300 year old trees. This 100g cake was stone-pressed in a custom mold carved by Master Zhou just for Verdant's new pu'er release series. One hundred hand editioned cakes were pressed in total. The sweet, smooth fruity flavor and rich texture are incredibly drinkable, and promising for long-term aging.
