Baifu Ripe Tuo — Aged Shu Puer with Deep, Smooth Character

2006 Baifu Ripe Tuo is a classic shu puer (ripe puer) from the Yunnan province, the birthplace of traditional puer tea.
Made from large leaves of old tea trees and pressed into the traditional “tuo cha” (nest) shape, this tea has matured beautifully over the years.
Its taste is smooth, full-bodied, and mellow, offering a rich palette of woody, nutty, and dried fruit notes, balanced by a gentle natural sweetness.
