The loose leaves are dark brown to nearly black, irregularly broken with some whole leaves visible. The texture is slightly rough with a mix of leaf sizes. Some golden tips are scattered throughout the darker material. The aroma is robustly earthy with aged wood and subtle smoky notes. The leaves have a matte finish typical of aged ripened processing.

The liquor brews a deep, dark brown nearly approaching black. The first sip delivers thick earthiness that coats the mouth. Smoky undertones develop, adding complexity and depth. Dark chocolate notes emerge mid-palate, providing bitter-sweet balance. The texture is notably thick and full-bodied. The finish is long with persistent earthy and woody impressions.

From Simao (Pu'er) City in Yunnan Province, this aged loose leaf represents traditional ripened processing. The aging has developed complexity while maintaining robust earth and smoke character. Good for experienced pu-erh drinkers who prefer strong, earthy profiles with smoky depth and full body.
