1980 Pu-Erh -- Like Blood for Vegan Vampires
Blood of the earth — a sacrifice, a gift.
This tea recalls a bygone era, a spectre of the golden age of Pu-Erh. Its liquor deep and red-black, pulsing with the luminous vitality that collectors know well. Each sip carries spice, ginseng, the scent of exotic woods -- aloes sandal, and rosewood — and shades of the Reishi mushroom drifting in its wake. It is at once grounding and intoxicating — as if the forest itself lay before you, offering up its depths in quiet sacrifice.
Categorized as gong jian (tribute tips) produced c. 1980, this tea travelled from Yunnan to Hong Kong, then to Taiwan for decades of careful keeping, before finally crossing the ocean to Cloudwalker's vaults. We are honoured to share the last remaining batch of this dark jewel from a revered private collection. Offered only as single-experience tea, its rarity increases with each infusion -- savour while it lasts.
