The End of Hong Kong Traditional (Wet) Storage?

Hong Kong Traditional (Wet) Storage fundamentally is a process for conditioning young puerh tea under heat and humidity to age more quickly. This nurturing of microbial activity under the process can induce a white coating to form on the tea leaves. The resulting tea takes on a dark profile becoming soft and mellow, and developing a distinct age character that is unique to this tea category. - Photo 1990s Menghai Orange Label (HK Private Commission)
