Village Tea

This brick of tea claim to be from 1990s is not puer tea, it is just tea using traditional method to dry, compress using wooden mould in some of the remote villages could be from Henan, Wuhan...

some tea merchants are trying to pass this of as puer tea brick etc...using new wrapper and name, where in the villages there are no branding etc, it is purely for their own comsumption etc..

 

 

tea  broth brownish color after brew tea leaves darker before brew like ripe puer tea,
taste wise a bit bitter like herbal tea, not smooth and smoky smell, this due to drying over fire..for social drinking maybe Ok if can accept the taste, this tea most suitable for those working under the hot sun....farmers etc..
