Travel tea set Lotus
Xiao Qing Gan 2009 Xinhui
An Cha 2023
Black (dark) Chinese tea from Anhui province, similar to traditional Lu An Hei Cha, but produced outside the originally defined area. Traditionally pressed/pressed into 250g bamboo baskets (Sun Qiao). The tea is lined and wrapped in a wide bamboo leaf (Ruo Ye) in the basket, used in traditional Chinese medicine. It is recommended to prepare the tea together with small parts of the wrapping bamboo leaf. The sparkling, orange-yellow infusion has an intense fruity aroma with a subtle herbal trace. The taste is refreshing, full, richly fruity with a gradually sweetening aftertaste.
Yi Wu 2006 shu Hong Kong
The tea has been stored in a humid warehouse in Hong Kong, so it is noticeably more ripe.
The scent is "humid" quality - that is you can smell wet wood, earthiness, mushrooms, but no traces of mold.
The taste is distinctly "wet" - earthy, dominated by notes of wood and mushrooms, wrapped in a smooth sweetness. Still, the tea has a medium body.
We recommend it to lovers of "earthy" puer.
Wu Yi Bai Cha Ye Sheng 2023 Orijin Tea
Shou Mei 2013 40g
Shou Mei, also known in the Czech Republic as 'Eyebrows of Long Age'.
This is a basic grade of white tea, but we have left it to mature in our warehouse for 10 years. The leaves are richly downy, with a few thick tips here and there. Now after such a long time in storage they are more brown than it is usual. The infusion has also darkened - it is a deep orange-yellowish colour with a typical 'medicinal' aroma and taste, a heavier spicy herbaceousness and a light fruitiness. The aftertaste is very distinctly sweet and lasts and lasts.
