The production process
A cloud (or "tuocha") is a form of pressed tea that can be either raw (shen) or mature (shu). For the production of Lao Cha Cloud, high-quality leaves collected from ancient tea trees are used. After harvesting, the leaves undergo a fermentation process and are pressed into round shapes, which allows the tea to be stored better and develop over time.
Taste and aroma
Tea Cloud Lao Cha Wei has a deep, rich taste with characteristic earthy and woody notes. The aroma may include light fruity accents, as well as sweetness and softness, which develop with each brewing.
