Weight: 100 gram loose leave broken from cake
Type: Raw Pu-erh (unfermented)
Grade: 1-3
Production area: Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province

Taste characteristics:
The Black Label Select used the same raw materials as the original Blank Label. After production, Denong Tea Factory selected finer leaves from the batch to press into cakes for aging. After almost two decades of aging, this tea is displaying characteristics of an aged pu-erh - it's darker, earthier, and has a richer and fuller mouthfeel. This is a good-value tea for daily consumption.

great value:) 11/10/2022

Haven't tried the select cake, but the old blank label cakes are great value. I broke one cake up and stored it in a jar for a few years. Mellowed out the sharpness significantly, wonderfully thick and sweet brew now.

Great value sheng, will buy more :)

Excellent tea at this price point. 185 degrees for the water temp. does work very well. I used boiling water by mistake the first time I tried it. The flavor is nicer at 185, thanks Linda!
Our responseSometimes cooler water takes the edge away. Thank you.
