The Ancient Puer Sheng Tea is harvested from trees that are at least 30 or 40 years old. Its leaves are extremely valuable, as the harvest is limited each year to avoid excessively weakening the plant. Many experts have praised its intense and enveloping aroma and its golden liquor, with a complex aromatic range, featuring notes of fruit and incense that linger on the palate. This tea comes from the mountainous area around the city of Menghai, in southern Yunnan. The Ancient Puer Sheng Tea features non-whole leaves in various shades of green, dark brown, and beige, in an elegant mix of colors. Once infused, the leaves emit an intense fruity aroma of pear, hints of incense, and traces of fragrant resin. In the cup, the liquor appears pale gold with orange hues: the body is silky and enveloping, and the slight note of astringency at the finish - typical of sheng - remains pleasant.
