This lot is wrapped in thin paper with minimal insect damage and stacked in thin bamboo. It was a custom order by Hong Kong Nantian Trading Company from Menghai Tea Factory in 1985, made primarily with Grade 7 to 8 tea buds, referencing the Hao Grade Pu-er formula. Preserved in absolutely dry storage, the tea has developed a strong, pronounced camphor aroma, comparable to that of Yin Grade Pu-er, making it an excellent choice for mid-term aging.
