CHARACTER

A sheng with significant aroma and tea strength, featuring a sandalwood and honey fragrance, creating a delicate, tart sensation on the upper palate. ☼ Its brew carries the tart-sweet flavors of rosehip and sea buckthorn, accompanied by the scent of charred oak. In the 2013 vintage cake, aged aromas are beginning to develop, though the fruity character still dominates. A full-bodied, heavy tea with sticky, resinous sips. Long-drinking and beautifully evolving, this sheng showcases both the strength and depth of wild forest teas.

It is powerful, with high chi, complementing and summing up one’s own energy.

The Menghai Manxie village is a less-known but fascinating puer tea-producing area in Menghai County, located in Xishuangbanna.

The tea gardens are generally locate between 1,200 to 1,800 meters above sea level. The subtropical climate with a monsoon influence, the rich soil and the warm, humid conditions add a special flavor to the tea leaves. The sheng (raw) puer from Manxie often features deep forest aromas, honeyed sweetness, and lingering minerality. The brew has a thick, velvety mouthfeel, with hints of  fruits, sandalwood, and subtle smokiness. As it ages, Manxie puer develops mature, camphor-like notes with smooth, resinous undertones. Many tea drinkers appreciate Manxie puer for its strong chaqi (tea energy), which is both grounding and uplifting.
