This lot is preserved in cotton paper and has been stored in an absolutely dry warehouse. Using traditional pressing techniques, the tea cake is thick and compact with a glossy appearance, offering hints of orchid and camphor aroma. Gam San Lau is one of the traditional tea houses with its own storage warehouse in Hong Kong. It stored a large quantity of top-quality Pu-er tea when Hong Kong was a vital transit point for worldwide tea exports during the late Qing Dynasty. Due to the lack of wrapping and the underground warehouse's abundant storage of Pu-er tea cakes, the teas affect each other's flavor and transformation, resulting in a unique "Hong Kong Warehouse" flavor.
