Product Description
Qianjiazhai Centennial Ancient Tree Raw Pu-erh Tea originates from a millennium-old tea garden deep in the Ailao Mountains of Zhenyuan County, Pu'er City, Yunnan Province. This area is home to the world’s largest wild tea tree king, which is 2,700 years old, witnessing the long history of tea culture.
This tea is carefully selected from ancient tea trees over 100 years old, grown at altitudes above 2500 meters in Qianjiazhai. The leaves are hand-rolled into tea balls, each one infused with the spirit of the wild mountains. The tea trees grow in pristine forests, far from pollution, with an excellent ecological environment. Surrounded by mist and clouds year-round, the area nurtures the tea leaves' unique flavor: the dry tea leaves are thick and sturdy, with visible buds and a strong aroma that carries fruity and plum notes. The tea liquor is rich and mellow, with a long-lasting sweetness, and the color is clear and bright. The leaves are soft, and the tea has a high endurance for multiple infusions.
This ancient tree raw pu-erh not only offers an excellent taste but also holds great collectible value. Over time, it will reveal the unique charm of "the older it gets, the more fragrant it becomes."
