This tea is a loose-leaf maocha (raw tea) made from wild tea trees found on Da Xue Shan (大雪山 - Big Snow Mountain) in the Lincang district of Pu'er county, Yunnan.
It is a young raw pu-er, with a sweet, lingering flavor. It does have a bit of bitterness on the tip and sides of the tongue, but not strong like you would find in many other young sheng teas. There is a hint of camphor or eucalyptus. Easy to drink with a wonderfully pungent fruity aroma.
