This tea was harvested from Bing Dao and processed by Tianming Tea Co. in Menghai, where it was stone-pressed by hand. It has been kept in dry storage at Tianming Tea Co. warehouse
in Guangzhou for the last 5 years. A total of 1258 cakes were pressed.
This tea was picked from gushu or ancient trees that are over 150 years old. This tea has
the pleasant characteristic “cooling” effect of sheng from “Ice Island” Bing Dao.
This tea has a very good balance of strong cha qi, bitterness, mouthfeel and
lingering sweetness. It has retained its spring aroma as well. The age of the
trees has only added to the smoothness of this tea.
