This tea was pressed 15 years ago (in 2005) by a traditional Menghai tea factory. These are 20-25 gram Golden Melon tuo cha made from a blend of Gong Ting, Te Ji, Grade 1 and 3 ripened tea leaves. They were stored in Kunming for 12 years in relatively dry conditions to maintain naturally suitable humidity and weather conditions.
The dryish aging conditions have preserved the character of this tea, while allowing it to mellow and gain complexity. The tea is sweet, creamy and very thick and expansive in the mouth. It's a very active and textured ripe tea that has all attributes a good aged ripe pu-erh should have.
Each melon is roughly 20-25 grams, and can give you 3 to 5 good Gongfu sessions. Each Melon is individually wrapped in off-white gold-flecked paper.

Exceptional IMO Surprised by this tea. Very distinctive delicious aged flavor and aroma, similar to some 90s Pu'erhs I've tried. I'd say this is a very good representative of the kind of aged ripe that's Tea connoisseur's favorite. Also a very powerful tea in flavor and cha qi, despite its mellowness. Dark and wonderful it's a cuppa to remember.
Brothy and earthy. Cocoa and bitterness as well but it’s quite mellow. Aroma reminds me of… dank castle armories. Strange association but not an unwelcome one.
