Spring 2019 "Slumbering Dragon" Sheng / Raw Puerh from Crimson Lotus Tea

Spring 2019 "Slumbering Dragon" Sheng / Raw Puerh from Crimson Lotus TeaYear after year this is one of the most interesting and singularly unique puerh teas that we source. This is a rare puerh. Of all the tea we sell this is the hardest to source and the hardest to pick. There is a village in Kunlu Shan that isn't even on Google maps. Once you're there you need to hike another 3 kilometers into the mountains to get to these trees. The hike is often steep. You gain 500 meters and it takes more than 3 hours to get there.
