2015 Purple TAETEA 1505 Sheng Pu'er Cake | Pu'er Tea

Purple Dayi is a recognizable sheng pu’er line introduced by TAETEA in the mid-1990s. This 2015 “1505” release continues that lineage, drawing on blended material selected for balance and steady aging.

Compared to more assertive factory recipes, Purple Dayi was designed to be relatively approachable. Compression and processing are calibrated to allow earlier drinkability, while still retaining enough structure for long-term development.

With time, the tea has settled into a smooth and even profile. Bitterness is present but controlled, resolving cleanly and leaving a gentle sweetness through the finish.

Rather than aiming for dramatic expression, this cake reflects a quieter side of factory production — one built around balance, predictability, and long-term reliability.

Purple Dayi is a classic tea in the Dayi tea system first produced by Menghai Tea Factory in 1996. The Zi(Purple) Dayi trademark that blooms like a purple rose has attracted countless old tea fans, so it has the reputation of "Rose Purple Dayi". It was also the first time that TaeTea used the purple+red packaging for outer and inner paper wrapping, symboling tremendous success according to the Chinese proverb.

This year of 2015 version tries to re-engrave the classic original cake of 1996. It is no coincidence that this Zi Dayi stays a myth of immortality in the history of Pu'er tea. It draws on the rich charm of the mountains of Menghai and has a well researched and formulated secret recipe, thus innovating on a new level of Pu'er tea, allowing the years to pass. Rolling forward, no one can forget the amazingness of the first encounter with it.
