Jinggu Ancient Tea Tree Dabaihao Raw Pu-erh Tea Cake
Jinggu Yunchun Tea Co
I believe this is what they call a white puerh, like the 12 Gentlemen "Da Bai Hao" that Nada and Andao tea offer.
The dry leaves are large with very long petioles. They remind me of Guang's "Spaghetti Tea," the 2005 Ming Yuan Hao Yiwu Wild Old Tree Cake. Very light compression: mostly I pried the leaves apart by hand. Lots just fell off the outside of the cake. The inside leaves are not as nice as the outside, but still handsome.
Broth is a light yellow to medium yellow. This is a very, very light and nondescript tea. The 12 Gentlemen "Da Bai Hao" is many times preferable, course it is also 5 times the price!
