Xiao Qing Gan Pu-erh is an embodiment of elegance and a long-standing tradition, where noble Shu Pu-erh finds a new voice in tandem with green mandarin from Xinhui. This unique tea, aged for five years, showcases a complex and harmonious organoleptic profile, carefully selected by Teemaailm experts for true connoisseurs of Estonia’s tea community.

In its dry form, the aroma of Xiao Qing Gan unfolds with captivating notes of fresh citrus zest, intertwined with a warm, enveloping sweetness and subtle woody undertones. The first encounter promises depth and freshness.

After the awakening rinse, the infusion acquires a rich, dark ruby color, playing with golden reflections in the light. The aroma becomes more expressive: deep, earthy, and nutty tones of high-quality Shu Pu-erh join the bright mandarin dominance, creating a rich and complex bouquet.

In taste, this tea reveals itself as a true masterpiece. The first sip delivers a soft, refreshing wave of mandarin tartness and sweetness, which then smoothly transitions into the dense, velvety, and oily base of Shu Pu-erh. The absence of the sharpness characteristic of young Pu-erhs is here replaced by roundness and calm depth, thanks to its five-year aging. Each infusion offers a balance between the freshness of citrus and the richness of earthy notes, with a subtle hint of dried fruits and warm spices.

The aftertaste is long, refreshing, and multifaceted, leaving a pleasant sensation of purity and delicate sweetness on the palate, with a lingering citrus trail. This is a tea that gradually reveals its facets, inviting a meditative tea ceremony.
