Wild Zirantuo Ripe Puer Old Tea

A rare, wild Zirantuo shou puer tea, aged and fermented

Experience the rich, time-honoured flavour of Wild Zirantuo Ripe Puer Old Tea, crafted from high-quality ancient tree leaves grown deep within the misty mountains of Menghai County, Yunnan.

After a long fermentation and ageing process, the dried tea leaves naturally form into dense lumps, releasing a deep, mellow aroma and smooth, earthy flavour with every infusion.

This tea is handpicked in April, when the leaves are at their prime, full of vitality, nutrients, and natural sweetness.
