[Product Description]

The 2018 Chen Sheng King's Collection Single Ancient Tree Banzhang Raw Cake is made from ancient tea trees hundreds of years old, sourced from the depths of the Banzhang dense forest in Xishuangbanna, at an altitude of over 1500 meters. It embodies the essence of millennium-old trees and absorbs the spirit of all things. The preciousness of this tea is truly hard-earned. The crown is tall, the leaves are lush, and the roots are nearly a hundred feet deep. It possesses the charm of the mountains and forests, gathering the essence of the sun and moon, and enduring the shifting stars of centuries, making it a tea that can be passed down through generations.

Tasting the King's Collection raw tea reveals a mellow, fresh, and refreshing experience. The tea soup has a high concentration and viscosity, is smooth and soft, and fills the mouth with fragrance. It produces saliva quickly, is sweet and delicious, and has a deep throat feel. The strong cha qi (tea energy) makes it a rare and highly collectible item.

The 2018 Chen Sheng King's Collection (Single Tree) Banzhang Ancient Tree Raw Cake (500g) has a uniform, well-formed, traditional, and rounded cake shape. The cake shape is quite beautiful. The weight of 500g makes it feel very textured, hand-friendly, and substantial.

The strips on the cake surface are complete, elegant, and luxurious. The strips of the century-old ancient tree are clear, thick, and powerful. In addition to tea buds on the cake surface, there are also tea buds on the cake base, as white as silver buds with obvious downy hairs. In addition to the tea buds, there are also many medium-grade thick tea leaves. The cake surface and cake base are consistent inside and out. With Chen Sheng Tea Factory's many years of tea pressing experience and technology, the slightly larger cake shape is more elegant and very pleasing to the eye, with the demeanor of a king.

Although the 2018 Chen Sheng King's Collection (Single Tree) Banzhang Ancient Tree Raw Cake (500g) is slightly larger than the standard cake (357g), it does not need to be pressed too tightly. Perhaps it is because the ancient tree tea is rich in pectin. Under not too much pressure, the cake shape is elegant, and the edges of the tea cake can be easily pried off by hand. Of course, when prying to the center of the tea cake, a tea knife tool is still needed to help pry up the tea heart. The crisp sound is endless, which means that the moisture content is ideal and the center is dry, making it difficult to mold.

The dry tea aroma of the "King's Collection" is a clear big tree tea aroma, very honey-sweet and fragrant. The honey flavor is strong and substantial. Just smelling it, the intensity of the tree fragrance and honey flavor can already feel its heavy pectin quality, because the aroma is very concentrated, sweet, beautiful, elegant, and pure. Although this tea aroma is the aroma of a newly made raw cake, the fresh and refreshing aroma comes from high-quality "century-old ancient tree tea," which is quite pleasing.
