Scientific studies proved that tea leaves from Pu’Er trees contain more polyphenolic organic compounds, which are the most powerful antioxidants than tea leaves from other regions. Sheng pu’er strengthens the cardiovascular system, vitalizes the nervous system, supports brain activity, reduces blood pressure, and has anti-inflammatory properties.

MANSONG ANCIENT TREES 2023
ORIGIN
This tea comes from Wang Zi Shan area in the Yibang mountains, which is located in Xishuangbanna, Yunnan Province, China. Yibang is one of the most famous ancient tea regions in Yunnan famous for its exceptional quality tea made from ancient tea trees. Altitude above sea level 850 - 1900 meters. Known for its aromatics, sweet taste, and strong Cha Qi this tea is considered as high-quality and hunted by many Pu'Er tea connoisseurs. Our Mao Cha is made from ancient tea trees grown at an altitude of about 1500-1900 m.
Spring harvest, traditional handmade processing.
Mao Cha translates as "rough tea" and means that this tea is unfinished and is in an intermediate stage of production. This term is used for a tea material that is ready to be steamed and pressed in case of Sheng (Raw) Pu'Er production or further fermentation process during Shu (Ripe) Pu'Er production. This type of tea is also used for blending and further storage before being pressed into 'cakes'.
ORGANOLEPTICS
Premium tea from ancient trees, traditionally produced and pressed for long-term storage. This tea is prepared to delight with its noble character and powerful organoleptic experience. It is a genuine, authentic Pu'Er, ready to satisfy any true tea hunter. The dry tea leaves have a soft, sweet honey aroma with light fruity and vanilla notes. When warmed, the aroma intensifies with floral and woody undertones. After rinsing, it unfolds into a perfume-like bouquet of sweet floral and wine-like nuances. With subsequent brews, the aroma evolves toward woody, mushroom, and forest notes.
The infusion tastes refreshing, sweet, and aromatic, leaving a long-lasting sweet aftertaste with floral hints. With longer steeping, the tea reveals deeper woody and mushroom notes, becoming more complex and multifaceted. It is an exceptionally smooth, noble, and profound tea with a reserved yet powerful character, carrying the invigorating energy of the mountains.
