2013 Yunnan SearchingTea “PA SHA Mountian” Raw Pu Erh Tea Cake

Description

This is the first flush of spring 2013 pluck from Pa Sha Mountain, which is just south of Gelanghe in the southeast part of Menghai County (Xishuangbanna). Plucked from old plantation bushes just west of Pa Shan Xin Zhai, this was carefully hand-processed into sun-dried mao cha in 2013.

The taste is strong and sweet, with a thick brine tea soup that is golden yellow in color. The taste is rich and pure; there is a crisp woodiness in the tea followed by a thick sweetness. Long lasting hui gan and sweet after-taste that is classically Pa Sha!

According to local people, Pasha was settled more than 300 years ago by people from the Jinghong and Damenglong area of Xishuangbanna. At that time, this area had no villages or cultivated land within 20 kilometers and was dominated by vast mountains filled with giant ancient tea trees. The Aini people, through foresight and diligent work, created their home on this land, relying on tea to earn a living. Pasha Ancient Tea Mountain is located in Menghai County, southwest of Gelanghe Tea Mountain. The highest elevation is 2000 meters, with an average of 1500 meters (the same as Lao Banzhang mountain). There are currently around 1200 acres of tea under cultivation. One hundred forty years ago, the current Banzhang settlement was founded by residents of Pasha who moved there to cultivate tea. Pasha Ancient Tea Mountain is shrouded in fog year-round and features abundant rainfall. The tea-producing area lies between 1500 and 2000m elevation and is in an area of luxuriant growth with rich ground cover and fertile soil. Tea tree growth is extremely productive, with an early budding period and long harvest periods, producing large, healthy tea leaves with striking silver tips — excellent quality tea. Pasha organic arbor tea is made from selected ancient arbor leaves grown at an elevation of 1700 meters on Pasha Ancient Tea Mountain in Menghai County.
