2006 Bajiaoting Yushang Qiaomu Qingbing (Arbor Raw Cake)
This exquisite 2006 Bajiaoting Yushang Qiaomu Qingbing is crafted from carefully selected qiáomù (arbor tree) large-leaf varietal tea leaves from Bulang Mountain, Yunnan. The cake is well-formed and regular, with robust, fleshy tea threads. It boasts a pure and mellow aroma and a righteous qì (tea energy), indicative of its rich inner substance.
The tea liquor presents with a faint smoky fragrance, a testament to its excellent dry storage conditions. The mouthfeel is full-bodied, with a quick shēngjīn (saliva-producing effect) and a long-lasting huígān (returning sweetness). It is remarkably durable in brewing; even after 10 infusions, its concentration and strength do not diminish, and the richness in the mouth remains.
Having undergone many years of professional natural dry storage, this tea has developed an excellent aroma, mouthfeel, and taste. It fully expresses the chénxiāng (aged aroma), mellow thickness, and huígān (returning sweetness) characteristic of mid-aged teas made from Bulang Mountain material.
Whether for a tea enthusiast new to Puer or an "old tea ghost" (lǎo cháguǐ - seasoned Puer drinker), this tea is exceptionally worthy of tasting and appreciation.
