2005 Che Shun Hao Yiwu Ancient Tree Round Tea
Step into the world of premium aged Pu-erh with the 2005 Che Shun Hao Yiwu Ancient Tree Round Tea. "Che Shun Hao" is a legendary name in the tea world, representing over a century of tea-making excellence in the Yiwu mountains.
The Yiwu Character Yiwu teas are celebrated as the "Queen of Pu-erh" for their elegant softness that conceals a potent inner strength. This 2005 vintage captures that essence perfectly. Made from ecological ancient tree leaves and pressed by traditional stone mills, the tea cake preserves the long, stout strips characteristic of the region.
Tasting Notes
Visual: The dry leaves are dark, oily, and well-preserved. The brewed soup is a clear, vibrant amber-gold.
Aroma: A distinct, high-pitched floral fragrance mixed with the sweetness of nectar (Honey Aroma).
Flavor: Full-bodied and mellow. While it enters the mouth smoothly, it reveals a robust and strong character. The "Hui Gan" (returning sweetness) is rapid and the "Sheng Jin" (saliva production) is persistent, leaving a cool, refreshing sensation in the throat.
This tea is not just a beverage; it is a bridge to the ancient tea forests of Yunnan. Perfect for aging further or enjoying now.
