About

Rice Scent Fossil Puerh |  糯香化石普洱

Known by tea artisans as “Scattered Silver” (碎銀子), this rare Fossil Puerh originates from Yunnan, China — the birthplace of Puerh tea. Crafted from spring‑harvested leaves, it undergoes a unique smoking process with indigenous glutinous rice fragrance leaves (糯米香葉), imparting a warm, soothing rice aroma unlike any other.

During the wet‑piling fermentation (渥堆發酵) process, natural pectins are released, causing the tea leaves to gently bind together and form nugget‑like clusters. These compressed Fossil Puerh pellets age beautifully over time, developing a deeper, smoother flavor and long‑lasting sweetness.

The amber‑red liquor offers a rich and mellow taste, balanced between earthy depth and soft rice fragrance. Its smooth mouthfeel remains sweet even after multiple infusions.

Naturally gentle on the stomach, this tea is prized for aiding digestion and promoting relaxation — making it ideal for daily enjoyment, especially among middle‑aged and elderly tea drinkers who appreciate health benefits and aged tea complexity.
