1 Cake (250 Grams)

25 Grams Sample

Celebrating 7 years of Lucy! Loved by humans, feared and hated by squirrels and vultures, Lucy is a force to be reckoned with!  Feel the thunderclap of her gallop, hear her stomach rumble, behold her shiny luster, listen to her snore, and breathe in her cinnamon and watermelon scent!
You saw the pictures, the silly little videos, profile pictures, Youtube guest appearances, and facebook mentions, so you knew this day would come!  The queen has arrived and she has ascended to her rightful throne in this year of the dog 2018!
The tea itself is a blend of Menghai and Lincang (Mengku) ripe teas from two different wet piling batches, the Menghai batch is from Spring 2016 material, the Lincang ripe is from spring 2017 harvested tea leaves.
The taste is rich and pure, there is a crisp woodiness in the tea followed by a thick sweetness.  The tea soup is dark but not cloudy, the mouth-feel is pungent, cooling and lubricating.  The tea leaves are very robust and will deliver 8 to 10 infusions or more when brewed gong fu style.  Cha Qi is strong for a ripe tea, but very pleasant and nurturing.
This is a tea to sip contemplatively and imagine oneself living the lazy life of a spoiled dog.  Sunning, eating, and sleeping without any anxiety or concerns for the future.
