Sheng Pu Erh (Raw)
Sheng, or raw, Pu Erh is a post-fermented Chinese tea from Yunnan province that is naturally aged over a long period of time, in contrast to Shou Pu Erh which undergoes an accelerated fermentation process. Young Sheng Pu Erh that have matured for up to five years have a fresh, lively flavour reminiscent of strong green tea, while older Shengs are more rounded, fruity and ripe with a calming character. Many of our Sheng Pu Erh cakes are also available in smaller broken pieces of cake, as well as loose leaf Maocha.
Maocha Pu Erh
For some of our young Sheng Pu Erh teas, we keep limited quantities of Maocha 毛茶 in reserve. Maocha, which translates as “raw tea”, refers to the already pre-processed but still unpressed leaves of Pu Erh. Particularly approachable and great for newcomers, it offers a milder, more immediate Pu Erh experience.

Xishuangbanna Region
Xishuangbanna is a prefecture in the south of Yunnan, bordering Myanmar and Laos, which is widely regarded as the most significant Pu Erh region of all. This reputation is due to Xishuangbanna’s long-standing tea history, as well as its numerous tea mountains, which have earned a "legendary" status among tea connoisseurs. Particularly notable are the regions around Yi Wu (易武), Nan Nuo (南糯), Bu Lang (布朗), and Ban Zhang (班章), from which we offer high-quality cakes from various vintages.

Lincang Region
Lincang is located in the southwestern part of Yunnan, with its western fringes merging directly into the monumental Himalayan mountain range. Some of the oldest tea trees in the world are found here, with some dated by scientists to be well over 1,000 years old. Alongside an excellent entry-level Sheng Pu Erh, we offer premium Gushu ("ancient tree") Pu Erh from the renowned regions of Ba Nuo (壩糯), Xiao Hu Sai (小戶賽), Yun Xian (雲縣), and a rare so-called Danzhu from Na Jiao (那焦), whose leaves are harvested exclusively from a single tree.

Pu Erh Region
The region, home to the former Pu Erh tea trading capital (formerly known as Simao), is located in the southern central part of Yunnan. Due to its large number of smaller, somewhat lesser-known cultivation areas, it is also referred to as the "heart of Pu Erh tea production". Particularly notable is the region around the highly renowned tea mountain Jingmai (景迈), whose diverse, distinctively floral and sweet Pu Erh has recently attracted a growing number of enthusiasts.
