Product detailed description
Archived shu puer from Huazhuliangzi village (滑竹梁子) at Mengsong Tea Mountain (勐宋山). The tea was produced and compressed in Spring 2016. The tea leaves come from young, mature and ancient tea trees (huncai 混采), harvested across Huazhuliangzi tea gardens. The cover has minimalistic white design with Chinese characters refering to the name of the village with the highest elevation in Xishuangbanna (over 2400 m.a.s.l.).
The tea was generously provided by Hu Rui, tea collector born in Menga township (勐阿镇) in Menghai county (勐海县). Hu comes from Han tribe (汉族) and her family owns a small tea house in Jinghong city (景洪市) since 2016. As a tea collector, she focuses on various teas across whole Yunnan Province, particularly from Xishuangbanna. During our work trip to Xishuangbanna in Autumn 2025, we spend a lot of time by comparing various aged teas from less-known tea villages in both Menghai and Mengla.
