Bu Lang 2010 shu Dashu Mini Bing Cha 56g

Bulang： A Famous Pu-erh Tea Region，located in the southern part of Menghai County, Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province, Bulang Mountain lies close to the China–Myanmar border. It is regarded as one of the world’s earliest tea-producing regions and is a renowned Pu-erh tea-producing area. It is also one of the areas with the largest number of preserved ancient tea gardens. With approximately 1,000 hectares of tea-growing area and an annual production of around 300 tonnes, Bulang tea enjoys a rich and enduring heritage.

Bulang Mountain Township has a southern subtropical monsoon climate, with abundant sunshine and rainfall. Winters are mild, summers are not excessively hot, and the varied terrain creates a wide range of elevations and microclimates. It is considered one of the townships with the best ecological environment in Menghai County, with abundant land, forest, and grassland resources.

The Bulang people have a tea-growing history of more than 4,000 years and are traditionally regarded as descendants of the ancient Pu people. They gathered and tasted countless plants and herbs, embracing the many gifts of nature and bringing them into their daily lives and tea culture. The treasures of the mountains became nourishment for the body and spirit. In virtually every Bulang village in the mountains, one can still find what are known as “Pu people’s tea gardens.”

Yunnan ethnologists and historians have long recognized the Bulang people as one of the earliest ethnic groups in Yunnan to cultivate tea.

The unique natural environment, soil, and water of Bulang give its tea a distinctive regional character. Its flavor seems to carry the essence of the mountains and earth, evoking the feeling of being transported deep into a pristine forest far from the world. The liquor is deep red and rich, with a sweet, mellow, full-bodied character and a subtle sweetness reminiscent of glutinous rice. Smooth, silky, and layered, it reflects the remarkable depth and richness of Bulang large-tree tea.

This Bulang 2010 Shu Dashu Mini Pu-erh Bing Cha is made from carefully selected large-tree tea from the Bulang tea-growing region, harvested from tea trees approximately 50–100 years old. Pile-fermented and aged for more than 15 years, it has developed a rich and mellow character, with pronounced sweetness and an intense aged aroma.

The tea displays the classic characteristics of ripe Pu-erh: a thick, smooth, and silky liquor with a lingering sweetness that gradually unfolds and remains on the palate.

Each mini tea cake weighs just 7 g. Its compact, elegant format eliminates the need to break or pry apart a larger cake and allows for convenient brewing with a wide variety of teaware. Each box contains 8 individual mini cakes, making it easy to carry and enjoy while travelling, at work, or during moments of leisure.

A beautifully aged and convenient Pu-erh, it is an excellent choice both for drinking and for adding to a personal tea collection.
