2018 Menghai Hong Yun

This 2018 Menghai Hong Yun mini cake is an amazing example of high quality ripe pu’er tea production.  This recipe was originally released in 2008 for the 68th anniversary of the famous Menghai tea factory and was an immediate hit.  Produced from young, high quality Da Ye variety leaves and pressed into a firm 100g disk with the famous DaYi logo pressed prominently into the front of the cake.  The tightly pressed disk is a bit hard to break apart, but it’s worth the effort!  This tea brews dark red/black with a deep earthy aroma.  The flavor is remarkably clean for a pu’er tea with little to no fermented flavor or funk.  Notes of dark chocolate and sweet pine make way for dry, clean finish.  A great tea for reminiscing about how far you’ve come.
