This LongRun Caiwei Pu-erh tea cake is selected from Cha-quality, large-leaf tea trees in the Lancang River region of Yunnan, China. These tea plantations are “GAP” and “IMO” certified and constantly quality inspected. This fermented Pu-erh tea cake (traditionally called a ‘Bing’ in Chinese) has complete, reddish-brown, intact, surface leaves. The brewed soup is reddish-brown, dense and bright in appearance, with aromatics that create a smooth, mellow taste that has a slightly sweet overtone. LongRun produces traditional teas which are processed according to medical manufacturing standards. Processing steps include careful material selection, distinct blending, the use of a unique climate and environment controls, aerobic fermentation, wooden warehouse storage, and 86 steps of strict quality control. Tea enthusiasts and newcomers alike are drawn to Pu-erh’s unique flavors, its cultural roots and the ever expanding wealth of health benefits associated with this special tea. We look forward to sharing our passion for this tea with you and to continuing discussions. Please reach out anytime!
