Puer Sheng Ancient Tea is harvested from trees that are at least 30 to 40 years old. Its leaves are extremely valuable, as each year’s harvest is limited so as not to overly weaken the plant. Many experts have praised its intense, enveloping aroma and golden liquor with a complex aromatic range, with notes of fruit and incense that linger on the palate for a long time. This tea comes from the mountainous area around the city of Menghai in southern Yunnan. Puer Sheng Ancient Tea has broken leaves in various shades of green, dark brown and beige in an elegant mix of colors. In the cup, the liquor is pale gold with orange hues: the body is silky and enveloping, and the slight note of astringency on the finish remains pleasant. The first infusion yields a tea with a sweet flavor, reminiscent of wildflower honey, and fruity, with notes of ripe pear. A subtle incense finish is noticeable. The third infusion brings out more woody scents, with hints of pinewood: the fruity taste of pear remains on the finish, albeit less sweet than at the beginning. The first sip is extremely fruity, reminiscent of pear nectar and raisins. The attack is soft and sweet, with hints of honey; the tea then evolves in the mouth, revealing notes of incense and hints of eucalyptus, thus leaving a remarkably fresh sensation on the palate. Origin: Menghai, Yunnan, China. We strongly recommend infusing Puer Sheng Ancient Tea using the traditional Chinese method (gong fu cha) to best enjoy these leaves. For a classic preparation according to the Western style, we recommend using 3 grams of leaves in a 200 ml cup with water at 95°C for an infusion time of 2 minutes. It is recommended to store Puer Sheng Ancient Tea in a cool and dry place away from direct sunlight.
