The 2019 Mansong Ancient Tree Pu’er Tea is sourced from century-old large-leaf tea trees in Mansong Tea Region, Xiangming Township,勐腊县 (Mengla County), Xishuangbanna, Yunnan. As a premium raw (sheng) Pu’er from the core Yibang Tea District of the ancient Six Great Tea Mountains, it embodies unique terroir and historical depth, with leaves nurtured in acidic red soil rich in trace elements like iron and zinc.

【Production Process】
Follows traditional sheng Pu’er craftsmanship with meticulous steps: Fresh leaf picking (selecting tender, intact buds) → Kill-green (sha qing) with precise heat control → Rolling by hand to break cell walls → Sun-drying to retain natural flavors → Steaming → Pressing into tight, uniform cakes → Natural aging since 2019 to develop complexity.
【The Dry Tea Leaves】
The dry cake features tightly knotted, intact strips with a dark green, oily luster and abundant silver-white hairs. The aroma is a delicate blend of fresh floral notes, honey sweetness, and subtle wild forest undertones.
【Tea Liquor】
Brewed liquor is bright golden-yellow with crystal clarity, gradually developing amber hues as it ages, and showcasing floating tea hairs that reflect its premium quality.
【Tea Taste】
Offers an immediate smooth, pure sweetness reminiscent of mountain spring water, followed by a rapid and long-lasting “huigan” (returning sweetness). The texture is rich and full-bodied, yet细腻 (silky) with layers of ripe fruit, floral elegance, and a hint of mossy forest depth. Highly resistant to infusions, it maintains complexity through 10–15 steepings, with each brew revealing deeper nuances of honey and dried herbs.
