2014 NAN NUO SHAN (ripe)
China - NAN NU Shan mountain, Xishuangbanna county, Yunnan province
Abbey Tea has selected one of the most famous ripe Pu erh tea from the Nan Nuo Shan. Picked from wild arbour trees at altitudes of between 1300-1400m, where the climate and rich organic soil produces a tea of exceptional quality. There are many foggy days, which makes Nan Nuo tea a fine example of the saying “High, foggy mountains produce famous tea.”
Using only the best leaves from the old trees, the leaves are hand picked, air dried, pan fried, fermented, steamed and then pressed. Great skill has been taken in crafting this top quality Pu erh tea cake. The leaves are pressed at the Menghai Ruigong Tea Factory.
The resulting tea is mellow with a soft, fruity, sweet taste and deep, rich aroma. This is a most highly prized sought after, difficult to purchase very pure Pu erh.
