Vendor Notes
This raw Pu-erh from Lao Man E offers an intense, balanced profile with prominent sweetness and a moderate, quickly fading bitterness, complemented by low astringency. Its nuanced fragrance carries leathery, animal, and herbaceous undertones, characteristic of the Bulang region. Expect a powerful mouthfeel and a refreshing, menthol-like 'Hui Gan' that builds with each long-brewing steep.
