“Late 80s Famous Mountain Old Tea” refers to a type of aged Chinese tea, specifically pu-erh tea (普洱茶), which is renowned for its rich, earthy flavors that develop over time. Pu-erh tea, especially those from famous tea-growing mountains in the Yunnan province of China, become highly prized and valuable as they age. Here’s what is important about this tea:

    • Yiwu Mountain (易武山): Known for its smooth and sweet pu-erh.
    • Menghai (勐海): Famous for strong, full-bodied tea.
  • Tea from these famous mountains often carries regional flavors and unique characteristics linked to the terroir (soil, climate, etc.).

3. Old Tea and Health:

  • Aged pu-erh tea is often revered for its potential health benefits. Traditional Chinese medicine attributes detoxifying, digestive, and fat-reducing properties to this tea.

4. Storage and Aging:

  • For pu-erh tea to age well, proper storage is essential. It must be stored in a controlled environment with the right humidity and air flow. Poor storage can spoil the tea or affect its aging process.

5. Value:

  • Old pu-erh tea, especially from famous mountains, is extremely valuable. This aged pu-erh tea cakes from the 80s or even earlier usually have a market price of more than 10 thousands of dollars due to their age, rarity, quality, and flavor.
