Aged Tangerine Peel Pu’er
About this tea
Shu Pu’er is a fermented tea with a warming and boosting effect. It is the traditional tea served with Cantonese and fine Chinese cuisines. Pu’er tea has a firm and refreshing taste. It is often blended with aged tangerine peels for a tasty digestive and enlivening brew. It is the perfect breakfast tea to wake up with and also good before and after meals.
We sourced several lots of five-year aged tangerine peels from Guangdong and blended them with 2011 and 2019 vintages of Shu Pu’er from Lincang, Yunnan. Aged citrus peels are considered more beneficial and have a settled and harmonious nature when blended and aged with Pu’er tea. The sweet aroma of tangerine peels becomes smoothly integrated with the deep and rich taste of our organic Shu Pu’er tea during the aging process.
This tea is full-bodied while sweet, aromatic and slightly savory. It is deeply infused with the taste and fragrance of tangerine citrus.
