Xantou Mandarin Pu-erh
A sweet, hollowed out mandarin with dark pu-erh inside! A truly unique tea experience.
A traditional treat in parts of China, mandarins are often given as gifts for good luck because the word for orange sounds like "Ji," meaning "good luck," meaning this tea makes a perfect gift for special occasions.
Black Pu-erh tea stands apart from other black teas due to its unique fermentation and aging process. The tea is processed and stored without being completely dried, often buried in the ground, stored in caves, or under damp tarps. This method imparts the earthy character typical of Pu-erh teas. Layered beneath this black Pu-erh are sweet citrus notes from the mandarin peel it is combined with before fermentation. As the tea ages, it absorbs the flavour of the peel, resulting in a citrusy, mossy, black tea.
Ingredients: Black tea (Pu-erh), Mandarin orange
Origin: Yunnan Province, China
The perfect cup:
Break the Pu-erh for roughly 1 teaspoon per cup or infuse whole in a teapot
Boiling water
Infuse for 4-5 minutes
