It is a young, but very bright, Sheng(Raw) Puerh from one of the most famous and respected factories producing puerh tea in China. Almost 60 years this factory produces high-class tea, pleases both ordinary tea lovers, and gourmets, collectors.
Sheng Puerh from the factory of Xiaguan always has a bright taste and tea state. Depending on the recipes, tea has different flavors and aromas, but they all have a smoked note. Tea in the form of a "nest", as a rule, is very strongly pressed, which slows the aging process and fermentation. This recipe has a taste of dried fruits with a pleasant, invigorating tartness like in every young Sheng Puerh.
A great example for acquaintance with sheng pu-erh, as well as for further aging.
Harvest: Spring, 2015.
“There is something special about the production of the Xiaguan factory. Sometimes these shengs are so much in that time and place that you begin to doubt, and whether we underestimate them.”
Andrei Ivanov (IZPODNEBESNOJ Tea master)
