2022 Yiwu Songman Ancient Tree Raw Pu’er Dragon Pearls（绕水柔）

2022 Yiwu Songman Ancient Tree Raw Pu’er Dragon Pearls

## “Rao Shui Rou” 绕水柔

### Wangyun’s Private Tea Reserve

Not all aged teas are powerful.

Some teas choose softness.

“Rao Shui Rou” — meaning *Softness Flowing Around Water* — is a private-aged raw Pu’er tea personally stored by Wangyun since 2022.

It comes from Yiwu Songman, one of the historic ancient tea regions connected to the origins of tribute tea culture in Yunnan.

Compared to the bold intensity of Lao Banzhang, Yiwu teas are often described as elegant, gentle, and deeply refined.

And Songman carries that spirit beautifully.

This tea was originally never intended for public sale.

It was part of a personal storage collection — quietly aging over time in natural conditions, slowly transforming year after year.

Now, after several years of resting, the tea has begun entering a particularly beautiful stage.

The sharp edges of young raw Pu’er have softened.

The bitterness has faded into sweetness.

The tea soup feels round, smooth, and calm — like water flowing slowly around stone.

That is where the name came from.

## What Makes This Tea Special

Yiwu tea is famous throughout the Gongfu tea world for its softness and lingering sweetness.

But Songman adds another layer:

A deep forest fragrance, gentle honey notes, soft floral aroma, and a silky texture that stays in the mouth long after drinking.

Unlike aggressive young raw Pu’er teas, this tea focuses more on comfort, elegance, and quiet transformation.

It is the kind of tea many experienced tea drinkers return to late at night.

Not because it shocks you.

Because it stays with you.

## About Dragon Pearls

Each Dragon Pearl is hand-rolled into a compact sphere for easy brewing and storage.

As the tea slowly opens in hot water, the leaves gradually unfold layer by layer, creating a long and evolving tea session.
