This exceptionally smooth, ripe pu erh tea is made from tea leaves harvested in 2013 and pressed into cakes in 2019. It features a delightful aroma palette of rice, nuts, cream, red fruits, mint, and a refreshing sweetness. There’s also something really special about this tea, which we believe really stands out: excellent ‘Chen Xiang’. You can read more about this below.
This Yellow Label tea cake from the Chaze factory is made from premium material (1 bud, 2-3 leaves) from the Menghai tea region. The tea leaves are picked from wild trees in the region with an age of 100 years or more.
Chen Xiang: The Fragrance of Age.
The term ‘Chen Xiang’ is something that often appears in the world of pu erh tea, and we think it’s used too excessively. The term literally translates to ’the fragrance of age’. Chen Xiang is hard to describe, but must be experienced.
Ripe pu erh tea, like the on you see on this page, doesn’t transform that much with age like raw pu erh tea. Yet, Chen Xiang may develop when a ripe pu erh tea is made from high quality material, balanced and not to aggressive processing, and optimally stored. That’s exactly what this pu erh tea cake represents, and why we’ve added it to our collection.
