| This Chun Ya tea cake is comprised mostly of lightly oxidized, unopened silvery Yunnan tea buds that were compressed into the shape of a round disc for easy storing and aging. Although technically a Green Pu-erh, it is not uncommon to see these tea cakes being classified as a Silver Needle or Yin Zhen (a popular White tea) tea cake due to the appearance of the tea buds. The liquor of its infusion is a reminiscence of Yunnan Gold tea, delightfully sweet with malty note. While most Green Pu-erh requires at least 4 to 5 years of aging for its mellow and sweet taste to develop, this Chun Ya tea cake is prime for drinking. Truly a treat not to be missed. Other names:
