Our 2013 Spring Bulang blend has all the hallmark bitterness of Bulang kucha, but with a complex mid-range and a delectable sweet top note & huigan. We chose old trees growing in forest near the Myanmar border, and you can definitely taste that forest spirit in this tea. We've deliberately left some huangpian in there, because it enhances the thickness & sweetness. Each cake is wrapped in hand-made Dai paper, with a linocut block print by the artist Elaine Su-Hui. The colorful splashes are inspired by the ceremonial headdress worn by Bulang women. A beautiful & completely hand-crafted, limited edition cake.

Released in 2012, this premium ripe cake was actually produced in 2011, from 100+ year old trees growing in the Bingdao region. Part of the excellent Shen Gu You Lan 深谷幽兰 series produced by Legend of Puer 忆云南.

A special collaboration between Mr. Gao Fa Chang & Tea Urchin, this is a limited edition, 精品 hand made cake. Mr. Gao spent 5 months sorting the tea leaves by hand, and discarding 15% of the original maocha to ensure the highest quality possible. Each "Tasseography" wrapper is hand printed & signed by the artist Elaine Su-Hui Chew, from an original linocut block. Only 28 Xikong cakes were produced.
