Small Tuo Cha 2014 y.o Cherry Tea

Small Tuo Cha Cherry Puer (2014) is a refined aged Shu (Ripe) Puer from Yunnan Province, delicately infused with natural cherry essence. Each small hand-pressed tuo cha — the classic nest-shaped portion (沱茶) — combines the deep, earthy richness of aged puer with the sweet, almond-like warmth of amaretto and a bright cherry finish.

The tuo cha format — a small, nest-shaped compressed portion — has been used in Yunnan puer production for centuries, traditionally designed for easy portioning and transport.
