Mengku is located in the north part of Shuangjiang County. It is one of the place where many Chinese minorities live.
Most of those ethnic people live in the mountains and do the tea or farming for living.
Mengku has long tea production history, it is known for the large tea leafs,
so it's named "The home of large tea leafs".
Medium pressed mini brick of Lincang sheng puerh naturally scented by jasmine flowers ( no chemicals added ) . It takes few infusions to make the brick break apart and you have to be careful with the steeping time as need to keep in mind that those are only bush tea leaf. The excessive brewing time will turn your tea in bitter side. Jasmine taste and...
Spring harvest Mengku tea is pressed by stone in into the 500g cake. The name "Ben Wei Da Cheng " freely translated as The Original Flavor is The Best One , and this cake is very close but not exactly as we use to drink from Rongshi tea company at their factory in Megku. Tea liquor with chrysanthemum fragrance reminding famous Bing Dao tea, yet with some...
"The King of the arbor trees" has a fair amount of bigger leafs and it has a good potential for longer storage. "Mei Li" sweetness along with front bitter taste leaving bit dry sensation on your tongue. "Sheng Jing" is noticeable and fast Hui Gan with light flowery notes. Late spring harvest pressed in summer.
Interesting piece of cake. It is slightly bitter with tiny touch of astringency which causes sort of boosting depth of that bitterness ( not the intensity ) . It gives overall bitter-sweet mouthfeel, not just in parts of the tongue ( like under, front, back etc. ) and slides into the noticeable "hui gan" after. After few steepings sweet sensation is...
Into the chrysanthemum garden would change your room when you pour first steeping. The spring tea leafs from small arbor tea trees Xiao Hu Sai area with significant touch of lavender during many infusions. You can go harder with brewing which cause bitterness emerge , but sweet notes are not going to hit you at front. Would be much more complexly...
Semi aged sheng pu-erh few years stored in Shuang Jiang farmer's place ( Dai family storage ). Clean storage without any excessive wet notes or unpleasant smokiness despite previous Lincang storage ( moved to Kunming later ) . Nice woody and fruity notes with combination of bitter front taste. Sweet mouthfeel comes along slowly and in humble way but...
Spring harvest from Mengku young arbor tea trees. Combination new concept of processing "xin gong yi" ( more in blog ) and storage in the place of production , helped to tea leafs loose some astringency which would be normally much stronger in this type / age of tree. Transformation / aging from very green estate is already in taste and with right brewing...
Blend of young arbors from around Bing Dao аrеа with another tea from Shuang Jiang tea gardens. We can't say for sure how much of Bingdao is involved but characteristics are there. Intensive honey and chrysanthemum fragrance from the cup or pitcher and reflected in taste after in clear tea liquor which is not much astringent with slight bitter end....
Spring tea leafs of young arbor trees growing in area of Xiao Hu Sai release typical chrysanthemum and lavender aroma which is also reflected in the taste acompanied by slight sweetness of the aging. Due to the young age of trees , some bitterness and astringency will emerge after time, but plays well with flowery taste if brew it carefully. Small batch...
Spring harvest from around 100 years old arbor tea trees growing in tea garden near to Ba Nuo village , Lincang area. Very easy sheng puerh drinker not too bitter neither too astringent despite the age of the trees. Decent ratio of "huang pian" yellow flakes / leafs add bit sweetness to the overall taste and keep the price reasonable low despite of...
Sheng puerh blend of spring harvest from Da Xue Shan and Ai Lao Shan. These two are main body ingredients where Big Snow Mountain is rather dominating. To spice that all up, we also blended in some Zi Ya ( black leaves ) from Xi Meng and Huang Pian ( yellow flakes ) from Bang Dong. You might experience some smokey notes along with flowery and fruity...
Autumn harvest from old arbor tea trees growing in tea garden near to Ba Nuo village , Lincang area. Very good daily drinker sheng puerh, not as strong as spring version but much sweeter. The very noticeable fruity notes in aroma of hot leaves and so the tea liquor taste itself. Astringency is also not that significant as in spring tea which is be more...
