Flagship shu pu-erh made from select raw material from old trees by the Art of Tea team—powerful, rich, and vibrant!

This pu-erh is crafted from top-grade mono raw material sourced from old tea trees aged 150–250 years in a high-altitude tea garden in the Mengku region. A delicate, gentle fermentation process in baskets preserved the depth of flavor and aroma from the first-class raw material.

The tea is enjoyable now but has excellent potential for further aging and development.

Aroma: Bright, rich, multifaceted, creamy-nutty, sweet, pastry-like, with notes of dried mushrooms, dried fruits, and berries.

Infusion color: Noble, rich chestnut with an amber sheen.

Taste and aftertaste: Woody-nutty, dense, creamy-pastry, with a pleasant chocolate bitterness and berry-dried fruit notes. It smoothly transitions into a creamy, soft, and slightly sweet aftertaste.

Effect: Strong, profound, uplifting, enhances overall tone, inspires, and energizes.

Production: Harvested in autumn 2021 in the Mengku region, with fermentation and further processing in 2022 by an experienced technician in Menghai County, Xishuangbanna Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China.

Format: Cake of 200 grams.

Brewing Instructions: Use a porcelain gaiwan or Yixing clay teapot,bo perform a rinse infusion, and then brew with boiling water.
