Sheng Puerh
Spring harvest from arbor tea trees planted in forest of Kunzhu mountain. Mao cha was stored 1 year at the tea farmer's place, which has allowed nice transformation ( oxidation ) changing the original characteristics of the leaf already before pressing. Fruity body with flowery background in aroma of brewed leaves and so the taste. Please compare with 2022 version to taste the aging benefits.

The actual tea garden is located at the edge of the forest on the southern slope of Kuzhu mountain, which guarantees to the tea trees have enough sun light , yet not overhelaming burn.
To bring fresh tea leaves to the farmer's home for the processing doesn't take longer than 30 min on foot , which guarantees that tea laves not fermenting in the basket too long which has major impact on the tea taste after. For the withering fresh leaves have to be spread out over large area in order to prevent heat going up inside , as that happens in the basket during the transfer.
Surprisingly good and easy
While maybe no great tea, this one was surprisingly easy on the palate, especially when brewed at 85˚, where it shone with a pleasant flavour register all the while being mild. Makes you wonder what it will be like after more aging.
