This lot has been preserved in natural storage with its original thick yellow cotton wrappers, with only one cake showing minor wear. Produced during the same period as 8582 Pu-er, the 8592 blend was an exclusive commission by Hong Kong's Nam Tien Trading Company between 1987 and 1988, preceding the later 1988 version with the purple hand stamp. As an early fermented Pu-er, it stands as a benchmark among ripe teas, offering chestnut-red liquor with classic ginseng and jujube notes.
