Default Definition request "Elabora Mansa"

I am trying to find the meaning of the term "Elabora Mansa" that
appears on one of Yunnan Sourcing's offerings and the only thing search
engines do for me is return me to the auction.
Anybody?

Could you give us a context please? I tried searching E. Mansa (in case it
was a plant) but came up with a lot of Portuguess sites. Mansa apparently
means "tame" in Spanish (and possibly in Port. but I don't know for sure).
My thought was that it was Latin.

Mansa is one of the six famous tea mountains. There is an earlier
thread 'Yunnan 6FTM Geography map' with the name of the six from
NeoCathay and Danny. I'm clueless about the PinYin Elabora. Above that
on the wrapper is the character Zhen1 meaning precious,valuable,rare
and the character pin3 meaning product. That vendor sells the six
mountains plus Nan Nou also clarified in a recent discussion 'Maybe
seven famous Yunnan tea mountains'.
