These Hidden Gems are made from leaves harvested on Bulang Mountain, in Menghai County, Yunnan. They were picked in 2006 from ancient tea trees, and pressed into these mini-cakes or coins. After close to two decades of aging in Hong Kong, this tea is velvety smooth, the forest notes of ripe pu-erh mellowed with camphor. It has a very soothing and comforting effect on the body. 

Each mini-cake contains ~12 grams of leaves. Simply unwrap one cake into your teapot, add boiling water, and linger over this delicious tea. It should be brewed many times - the cake will come apart over each brew, yielding subtle variations in flavor.  For a shorter tea session, the cake can be easily split into halves by pressing against the creased line in the middle. Brew a half cake the same way as brewing a whole, only there won’t be quite as many brews.
