Origin: Raw puerh tea from Yunnan, China.
Harvest season: Spring 2022
Sourced from ancient tea trees in Bing Dao Ba Wai (坝歪) village, this 2022 loose raw puerh embodies the pure character of one of Yunnan’s most revered tea regions. Nestled at around 1,500 meters above sea level, Ba Wai enjoys a pristine environment—shrouded in mist, blessed with abundant sunshine, and surrounded by rich biodiversity—ideal conditions for nurturing exceptional puerh.
As a loose leaf tea, it reveals the quality and integrity of the leaves directly—often regarded as a more transparent expression of the raw material. Loose puerh also matures faster than compressed cakes, making this 2022 harvest already remarkably smooth, complex, and deeply enjoyable.
Ba Wai tea is known for its broad, thick leaves, rich aroma, and distinctive orchid fragrance. In the cup, it yields a dense, full-bodied liquor with confident strength. A firm bitterness emerges at first sip, quickly transforming into sweetness and leaving a lasting hui gan (returning sweetness) that lingers beautifully. Expect a rounded, viscous texture, bold yet harmonious energy, and a finish that continues to unfold through multiple infusions.
