Xia guan Tuo Cha (下关沱茶)
Xia Guan Tuo Cha ,also named Yunnan Tuo Cha that is origin from Ming Dynasty.
It is one of compressed forms of Pu Er Tea, usually it`s smaller than pu-erh tea cake,
that is easily to carry to anywhere,therefore it had been popular during the Ancient
Tea Route. Xiaguan Tuo Cha is known as high quality tea with long history
and typical intensive Cha Qi with smoky flavor.
quite bitter with the first two infusions but slight sweetness comes after second-third brewing and so as color. Its a good daily drinker for decent price.
This is a typical Xiaguan tuocha ,where the bright golden tea color liqour is slightly bitter-astringent taste, distinctive smoky flavor accompanied by dark chocolate notes with slightly sweet after-taste .

The not " fresh " taste of well settled sheng pu-erh is the sign of mixture 4 past years tea material, so technically speaking could be 2013-2017 sheng puerh tuo cha.

In very flashy green box packed new model of tuo cha from Xiaguan as the remake of the old packaging. Smoky & sweet tea liquor holds for few good infusions. Pleasant "sheng jing" buzzing after 3rd cup with nice warming body feel after.
Sheng pu-erh from Xiaguan pressed into the 250g brick without any wrapping, 5 bricks in the paper pack. If buy single brick we wrap it into the paper bag for you. Typically smokey notes in taste but more fruity background than the younger ( 2017) version we also have. This is also contributed by different storage which was in north of China.
Hard pressed tea brick from Xiaguan company previously stored in Guangzhou which has imprinted some mushroomy notes in aroma of brewed tea leaves , yet not that intensive in taste. Tea liqour is sweet fruity aged taste and not that smokey as it's in dry stored version. Harder steepings will turn bitter but leaving sweet mouthfeel on sides of the tongue...
