Together with Xishuangbanna and Pu’er, Lincang is one of the three Puerh production areas. Being a famed Puerh region since ancient times, Lincang has always had its importance in the history and in the present, due to the huge diversity of varietals and a large stock of ancient tea trees heritage in the area.
Although our 2019 Lincang Ripe/Shou Puerh Gold Nugget is still a young tea, it is worth a try. It has quit any possible unpleasant smell that a young Shou might have and gives a flavorful tea soup with round body and creamy texture, with sweetness, jujube notes, and slightly glutinous rice notes in it. Due to its high-quality and the economical price, it is a perfect choice for daily drinking.
