🏺 One of the Three Legendary Aromas: Unique Naka Fragrance

Naka aroma, alongside Zhengyuan aroma and Jingmai aroma, ranks among the three iconic fragrance profiles of Puer tea. Handcrafted in 2000, this tea was custom-made exclusively for century-old tea house Dingchangxiang. Made from rare Menghai medium & small-leaf tea trees, its raw materials are scarce. It has matured solely in dry storage over the years, boasting exclusive customization and embodying the immense collectible value of aged vintage tea.

🍃 Spring Bud Bamboo Tube Tea: Craftsmanship of Intangible Cultural Heritage

Its production process is extremely intricate. Tender spring buds are steamed soft before being stuffed into fresh sweet bamboo tubes. The tubes are gently baked and compacted over low heat, refilled with tea and re-roasted repeatedly, then sealed with fresh bamboo leaves and slow-cooked over charcoal fire. Finally, the finished tea is stored long-term in dry warehouses.

Due to the complexity of this craft, traditional bamboo tube tea is mostly pressed with coarse mature leaves. This batch, however, is elaborately refined with tender spring buds—a highly challenging technique rarely seen on the market.

🍵 Bamboo Aroma Woven into Tea, Lingering Minty Rocky Mineral Notes

After years of maturation, the tea carries intertwined sweet bamboo fragrance and cool mint undertones, underpinned by Naka mountain’s signature rocky floral aroma and ripe fruity honey sweetness. The fragrance dissolves fully into the tea liquor with rich, distinctive layers. Smooth, mellow and full-bodied on the palate, it leaves a long-lasting cool sensation in the throat, fully showcasing the iconic charm of authentic Naka aroma.
