Wild White Tea Cake Premium 2020 - Yunnan Big Leaf 5-Year Aged

Wild White Tea Cake Premium 2020 - Yunnan Big Leaf 5-Year Aged

Premium 2020 Wild White Tea Cake - Yunnan Big Leaf Variety, 357g, 5-Year Aged

Experience a unique white tea cake crafted from wild-harvested Yunnan big leaf tea trees. This 2020 tea offers the complex, aged character of raw pu-erh - but without any astringency. Naturally sweet, smooth, and incredibly long-lasting through multiple infusions, it's an approachable yet profound tea for both daily enjoyment and aging.

Wild White Tea - Yunnan Big Leaf Variety

This unique tea is made from wild-harvested Yunnan big leaf tea trees (da ye zhong 大叶种), the same variety used for pu-erh tea. Unlike traditional Fujian white tea made from small leaf varieties, Yunnan big leaf white tea offers greater depth, complexity, and aging potential. The wild-harvested material adds distinctive character and vitality.

White Tea Processing, Pu-erh Character

Processed using white tea methods (minimal processing, natural withering and drying) but made from pu-erh tea tree material, this tea offers the best of both worlds - the gentle character of white tea with the complex, aged character of raw pu-erh, but without any astringency.

2020 Vintage - 5 Years of Aging

Pressed in 2020, this tea has undergone 5 years of natural aging, developing mellow sweetness and smooth character. The aging has created complexity while maintaining the tea's gentle nature. The tea is excellent for drinking now and will continue to improve with further aging.

357g Pressed Cake Format

Pressed into the traditional 357g cake format, this tea is ideal for aging, sharing, and breaking off portions for brewing while keeping the rest of the cake intact.

Distinctive Flavor Profile

The tea is approachable - naturally sweet, smooth, and without astringency - making it easy to enjoy. Yet it's also profound, offering complex aged character and depth that rewards careful attention. Perfect for both daily enjoyment and special occasions.
