Description

The 2024 cake shows fresh green-brown leaves with tight compression and prominent silvery buds throughout. The surface appears clean with good processing quality. Dry aroma is sweet and nectar-like with fresh vegetation notes and rock sugar scents.

Brewing creates a pale yellow-green liquor with excellent clarity. The taste opens with rock sugar sweetness immediately present. Gentle bitterness enters mid-palate, balanced by the sweet base. Light astringency provides structure without harshness. Nectar-like qualities persist throughout multiple infusions. The body is clean and crisp with moderate weight. Sweetness lingers after swallowing with minimal bitterness in the aftertaste.

From Bulang Mountain in Menghai County, this 2024 production represents very young raw material with traditional processing. Best for those comfortable with young raw pu-erh that balances sweetness against mild bitterness and will develop with aging.
