A mellow and balanced, easy-to-brew tea that had a lot of aromatic complexity, and an overall character somewhat intermediate between large-leaf Assam and Yunnan teas.

The dry leaf, which looks a little darker than in the picture from Yunnan Sourcing's website, has a wiry and kinda dusty appearance, and consists of ...

This was another delightful tea. Of all the teas I've tried recently, it was most similar to the Big Snow Mountain of Mengku.

I drink Menghai V93 often, even though it is not the 'best' tea out there, it is still a really reliable ripe puer tea. It is really nice after a heavy meal!!
