Lao Man E is legendary for a deep, leathery bitterness that breaks fast and gives way to a long, honeyed sweetness; the autumn harvest keeps that signature but softens it, trading raw aggression for balance and remarkable endurance. Expect moderate bitterness that disappears quickly, mineral and earthy depth, faint floral tones, and a huigan that lingers for hours — “a quiet but unstoppable force” across 20+ infusions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis cake is pressed from the sweet varietal of Lao Man E (the village grows both a bitter and a sweet type), grown in the Bulang area south of Menghai at around 1200 m. The trees are only a few decades old but grow vigorously in the area’s fertile soil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Lao Man E village, Bulang Shan, Menghai, Xishuangbanna, Yunnan, China (ca. 1200 m altitude)\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCultivar:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sweet varietal, seed-grown\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAge of Trees:\u003c\/strong\u003e A few decades old, ecological gardens\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHarvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e Autumn 2024, hand-picked\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTaste:\u003c\/strong\u003e Moderate, fast-breaking bitterness over mineral and earthy depth, faint floral tones, and a long honeyed huigan with excellent endurance\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farmer Leaf","offers":[{"title":"357g","offer_id":66847570853933,"sku":"UE-LME-001","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0612\/5938\/2829\/files\/260610-DSCF3976.jpg?v=1781109521","url":"https:\/\/unearthed-gallery.com\/products\/autumn-2024-lao-man-e-raw-pu-erh-357g","provider":"UNEARTHED gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
