2016 Guchashan (DaDuGang) Ripe Puer - from Trailhead Tea, Sedona, Arizona
An AGED RIPE/SHU PUER 2016 spring harvested from the DaDuGang area of Yunnan Province, and then pressed and stored at the DaDuGang factory, where we toured in October 2016. DaDuGang is a large sized quality producer, possibly the largest puer tea garden in China. We spent time learning with the company manager. We sampled this tea in their tasting room before acquiring.
The taste of the tea is very smooth for its age, somewhat rich. The aroma is dark earthy and woodsy, with a good mouthfeel.
MODERATELY TO HIGHLY CAFFEINATED (approx 30-50% of the caffeine as coffee)
