These thick and well-formed cakes have been preserved in dry storage. Commissioned by Hong Kong's Nam Tien Trading Company in 1985, the 8582 blend was developed to meet market demand, using robust Lincang-area tea leaves primarily of grade 7 to 8 for improved quality and consistency. The tea offers a rich, balanced taste with pronounced camphor notes and a lingering sweetness.
