🫖 Ancient Tea Tree Yunnan Pu-erh – Daxueshan, Yunnan
Rare Single-Bush Harvest | Wild & Powerful | 100% Handcrafted
Experience the bold, vibrant essence of Yunnan’s high-altitude wild forests with this single-bush raw Pu-erh from Daxueshan (Big Snow Mountain). Harvested from century-old ancient tea trees at elevations over 2,000 meters, this tea delivers a clean, floral intensity, layered minerality, and a long, lingering finish that evolves beautifully over multiple infusions.
🔨 Artisanal Processing – Handcrafted from Start to Finish
Every leaf is handpicked in early spring, when buds are young and nutrient-rich. The production follows traditional Pu-erh sheng cha (raw tea) methods:
Sun-Withering under the mountain light to reduce moisture naturally
Manual Rolling to gently break cell walls for slow oxidation
Stone Pressing — each cake is individually hand-shaped
Natural Drying in shaded, well-ventilated environments
No machines. No artificial heat. Just time-honored skills and wild terroir in every leaf.
