Their time in Hong Kong has allowed the tightly pressed cakes to age well, with their subsequent storage and ageing in Malaysia allowing the tea to become more refined and much of the traditional storage flavour to dissipate. The end result is a...

2015 Pin Raw Puer Tea 200g from White2tea. The Pin is a blend of three years of high quality material (2013, 2014, and 2015) with Lincang character. The tea has a sweet flavor and a heavy fragrance.

„I found my early blogging efforts, basically writing down my impressions of the tea I drank every day, to be a worthwhile exercise – it helps me process what I’ve had and what I thought, and once in a while I go back to my own ideas back then and realize how I have developed as a drinker, as well as how a tea may have changed over time. Many of my earlier perceptions are flawed, if not outright wrong, or at least have been modified over time by my experiences since then. Writing about it constantly here helps me work through those thoughts.“
