Dayi 8582 Raw Puerh (Batch 2101) is one of the three "pillars" of classic recipes from the Menghai Tea Factory. While 7542 is about elegance, 8582 is about power. This recipe focuses on utilizing mature Grade 8 leaves, which provide the tea with a robust structure, rich color, and incredible aging potential.

Flavor & Evolution (5 Years): As of May 2026, this Sheng Puerh has passed its "early youth" stage. The aggressive grassiness has evolved into notes of dried apricots, smoked pear, and a subtle smokiness characteristic of classic Dayi cakes. The mouthfeel is now rounder, featuring a pronounced sweetness in the aftertaste (Hui Gan) and a strong Cha Qi energy.

The Value of Batch 2101: The first batch of 2021 (2101) is traditionally considered the most promising for collectors. Thanks to its high content of larger leaves, this tea will only grow richer with every year of storage, developing honeyed and medicinal undertones.
