Stored in mild dry storage, this lot shows slight early tasting marks with minor surface repair. It is believed to be the final creation of Keyi Xing, and notably the only vintage brick pressed with raw tea. A faint Red Mark inner ticket remains visible within the brick. Made from carefully selected Menghai (Fohai) Youle Mountain large-leaf spring tea, one of the famed Ancient Six Tea Mountains, this lot is recognised as the earliest existing form of Pu-er tea bricks.
