From Yunnan Province, this unique tea combines the richness of post-fermented Pu-erh with the smoothness of semi-fermented Oolong, gently compressed into small, round "nest" shapes (tuo cha) and individually wrapped for convenience. Like traditional Pu-erh, this tea undergoes post-fermentation—a natural aging process where beneficial microbes gradually transform the tea’s character over time, enhancing depth and smoothness.

These compressed nests brew a dark, mellow infusion with the signature earthy notes of Pu-erh and the light, woody sweetness of Oolong. They take slightly longer to infuse than loose-leaf, rewarding the wait with a full-bodied, aromatic cup.
