This tea hails from Luo Shui Dong village, literally "waterfall cave" in Chinese. Luo Shui Dong is one of the famous villages in Yiwu township, where Yiwu is one of the six historical Pu-erh tea mountains of Yunnan province. Luo Shui Dong has a long history of producing pu-erh tea, renowned for its high-quality tea, and is currently populated with about 23 families, about 100 villagers in total. 

This tea is from spring harvest of 2018 during Victoria' Yiwu sourcing trip. It is fruity, very smooth, pure and sweet, full-bodied and creamy. The liquor is golden brown, very clear, pure and sweet. A great daily tea for its value. Good for consuming now or aging for later enjoyment. 

Traditionally, pu-erh cakes are stacked together and wrapped in a bamboo skin case called a tong. One tong is composed of 10 individual cakes. To purchase a tong, please simply order 10 cakes and we will ship you a tong.
