Early 2000s
2000s Menghai Shu Puer Fangcha
Full-bodied, earthy fermented dark tea with a pure, crisp bittersweet taste and a scent reminiscent of ischoklad and a forest after heavy rains, with a fresh mineral aftertaste. Really beautiful example of traditional style of shu puer fermentation leaving a lot of potential for further ageing. Due to this style, tea can last many, many infusions (unlike newly fermented teas) and possesses some perks attributed rather to sheng puers.
Origin: Menghai, Yunnan province, China
Cultivar: Dayezhong - Big leaf tea trees
Harvest: Late 1990s to early 2000s
Type: Dark fermented tea (Shu Puer)
Storage: Clean humid Taiwan storage
500g brick shape pressed Shu Puer from wet, yet exceptionally clean Taiwanese storage. Unlike other Shu Puers from our selection stored in drier Kunming with warming and woody profile, this particular one gives rather metalic/mineral cold impression and notes and freshness of finely matured Sheng Puer.
Even though it is wrapped in CNNP wrapper, we are totally certain this one is a private production as all the CNNP productions used to be pressed into 250g bricks only.
