2006 Peacock Tribute Cake, Langhe Tea Factory

Langhe is one of the top-ten puerh tea producers with selections ranging in price and quality. Langhe ripe productions are distinguished for their clean taste, free of off tastes, heavy odors. A gorgeous cake filled with golden leaves, indicative of the tribute class of teas. A medium density cake that breaks apart easily and has close to 10 years of transformation in dry-stored conditions. It steeps quickly. The taste is sweet, with a touch of menthol, and an unmistakable taste of dried orange peel. Not only does the tongue tingle but too do the lips. The huigan is instant and lingers longer than most.
