- Da Qing Gu Shu (Da Qing Old Tree) is my favorite tea from Spring 2015. It's made from old tree tea leaves picked from the first flush of Spring. Da Qing village is located in Jinggu county and is a remote village with unadulterated tea trees growing in the nearby hillsides. The leaves for this production are from one family whose trees are the oldest in the area. The age of the trees between 100-300 years old.
The tea is perfectly balanced and is very stable through many infusions. Bitterness, astingency, sweet, spicy and floral all at once with long lasting taste and feeling in the mouth, throat and body long after drinking it.
Very limited quantity one family production!
400 grams per cake (7 cakes per bamboo leaf tong)
50kg in total produced

This is one of my favorite cakes. It's also the first YS cake I bought!
Shweet! Powerful tea both in taste and qi!
Yeah it was a huge step up for me too because I'd only had "meh" pu-erh up until that point. I think it's safe to say that if I hadn't had this particular cake, I'd probably have given up on pu-erh in general.
Good to hear it it was your savior!
Such a good tea. It was my first cake ever, and I only have a sliver left, about 100g... It has matured so well. Also very consistent from year to year, in my experience. Love it. Thank you as always, Scott and Xiao Yao.
The grower of this tea is really excellent at processing and their tea is pretty much always good. I am excited to taste the spring 2018.
Ohh this one is one of my favorites. Wonderful taste!
Organic is to be saluted
We are excited to offer some legit Certified Organic.
Do you mean the Da Yi cakes they sell as organic? or just their regular cakes?
Those are Certified Organic. I think it's legit. They have a certified organic plantation in both Nan Nuo and Bada.
I just got a cake. It will be my first gu shu, also one of the youngest sheng puerhs I have had so I'm pretty stoked!
Awesome! I appreciate that and I hope that it's an enjoyable experience for you!
Sweet intro there, love to watch these videos while having a puerh session.
Thanks for watching!
I´m not lacking for tea .... *giggles* --- hahahaha best moment!!!!! Love it!
;-)
I dig that owl tea pet.
It was a gift from my Russian customer who lives in the UK. He got it on a trip to Indonesia.
Glad to see another video :) I have a cake of the autumn 2014 da qing gu shu and it's really good! I'm looking forward to the can we stump Scott series!
Autumn 2014 DQGS is the first one... classic and now sold out. Hold onto that (if you can). I've signed myself up for a beating with the stump Scott series. ;-)
The autumn 2016 Da Qing Gu Shu is drinking amazing right now, even if you forgot you pressed it in 2016!
You're making me want to order some now, but I've already ordered so much! 😂😂 I'll have to wait.
No pressure!!!
Thank you for the video. 3/4ths of the way through my 2017 Fall Raw Samples... Gotta give my stomach a break! :)
Yeah the Autumn 2017 raw cakes are still really young and "green". Take it slow.
This was the first Yunnan Sourcing raw pu’er I ever drank. Was very impressed by it and it’s still one of my favorites. I have a cake of this and the 2014 autumn and can’t wait to see how they’ll age.
What is the word in pinyin that the Chinese use for the "lubricating" feeling (around 13:54)? My ear is really bad. Thanks

Thank you. This tea seems very nice. At around 15:25 you mention the possibility of doing a Da Qing Sampler. That would be very nice!
Working on this right now!
Another nice chill video, super enjoyable to watch.
I was wondering, do you have an estimate of what a 1993 puerh cake would cost at this point in time? I am considering getting getting one for sentimental reasons :)
1993 cakes can be very expensive, especially sheng. Ripe could be in the hundreds of dollars and we have some 1990 tuo and brick on the site. Raw would likely be atleast a $1000, up to $10,000 or more if it's a famous cake.
Thanks for the response, I am asking about 1993 specifically since that would match the birth year of the person who will receive it.
I am already looking forward to seeing the new series. And please keep up the nice work :D
