This lot comes in its original packaging and has been preserved in mildly dry or natural warehouse. The relatively round and thick tea cakes are wrapped in thick cotton paper, showing signs of insect damage. They are made from a blend of grade 5 to 8 coarse leaves, primarily grade 7 to 8. After 40 years of aging, they have developed a flavor reminiscent of Yin Grade teas and are revered as a premium mid-term Pu-er tea.
