Sheng Puer, Famous Chinese Tea

This loose leaf Puer holds the true taste of Puer! This is really something for true connoisseurs to try. This 2004 Sheng Puer has a spectacular taste and flavor, taken from leaves of very old trees. The leaves are dried in the sun in the most optimal locations, and the precious leaves are hidden away for several years in a dark cool place. These quality steps and procedures result in the luxurious taste of this tea.

Sheng means 'green' or 'raw Puer', undergoing minimal processing of the leaves. The light smell of smoke and the ephemeral taste of dried fruits, dates, raisins, dried pears — unobtrusively carries its taste from the world of spices and grassy wood accents.
