Product Overview

Crafted using a traditional technique recognised as a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage — the ancient art of Nan Lu Bian Cha, the historical name for what is known today as Tibetan Tea. Preserving the classic brick form of Kang Zhuan — the traditional compressed shape that has been made for centuries — reimagined into a convenient 5g mini cake. One piece, one brew. Good tea, anywhere, anytime.

Deep orange-red liquor, bright and clear. Rich aged aroma, full-bodied and mellow. Especially satisfying after a heavy or rich meal — warming, grounding, and deeply comforting.
