It is still clean old-growth trees, but the types of gardens closer to the village in what we call “eco arboreal” gardens. It is actually a blend of various gardens from around the Menghai area, which allows the factory to create certain flavors and increase the amount of production. Sometimes there is debate about single-region versus blended puerh amongst tea lovers, but most all teas of the Masterpiece Era (1950-1972) and Chi Tze Era (1972-1998) were blends. A blend often means the strength of one region adds to the weakness of another. Also, as the teas sit together in storage, they fuse and become one, which is also interesting. Single region teas are also great, but blends can be magical as well. Each has its strength. The storage is very clean and the tea is deep and powerful. There is a classic Bulang buttery flavor and extreme patience (meaning we get many steepings from this tea) which suggests a large amount of Bulang tea in the blend. This was common in “classic” Menghai Factory recipes that often had Bulang, Lao Man’e and Bada tea amongst others.

It is actually a blend of various gardens from around the Menghai area, which allows the factory to create certain flavors and increase the amount of production. Sometimes there is debate about single-region versus blended puerh amongst tea lovers, but most all teas of the Masterpiece Era (1950-1972) and Chi Tze Era (1972-1998) were blends. A blend often means the strength of one region adds to the weakness of another. Also, as the teas sit together in storage, they fuse and become one, which is also interesting. Single region teas are also great, but blends can be magical as well. Each has its strength. The storage is very clean and the tea is deep and powerful. There is a classic Bulang buttery flavor and extreme patience (meaning we get many steepings from this tea) which suggests a large amount of Bulang tea in the blend.

For a long time, the village was far removed from the outside world, and the people here still lived quite a traditional lifestyle. The natural environment is very well preserved, the forested mountainsides flourishing with vegetation. The tea trees that grow scattered in a fifty-kilometer radius of the village share the forest with towering trees, imbuing the tea with the wild spirit of the ancient mountain forests.

This is why we often put the dates of such teas in quotes on our website. This is also the reason that such teas are so much cheaper than their cake cousins: they lack provenance and vintage. Loose-leaf teas from the “1960s” may cost hundreds or thousands for a jin (600 grams), but a cake from that time would be several tens of thousands of dollars and only be around 300 grams (traditional cakes are 357 grams at pressing, but always suffer attrition at the edges over time). Cakes have a vintage—they have a wrapper, an inner trademark ticket (nei fei) and other identifiable features that allow us to date them. Loose-leaf teas do not. Loose-leaf puerh often starts out blended but then is also added to over time as new owners purchase it. That is why a “1960s” loose-leaf puerh is rarely from the 1960s, though it may contain tea from that period—there really is no way of knowing. Most are blends of a well-aged tea, a younger wet-stored tea and a bit of shou. The only way to evaluate loose-leaf sheng teas is to rank them against one another, determining quality by drinking lots of them and then comparing them to one another—not age, especially the age quoted at the shop.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eForest Path and Floor are a bit different, though. They are blends of maocha from the late 1990s derived from trees in the greater Yiwu region. They have only ever had one owner who stored them from then until now. He is a good friend, and someone we trust, so this tea is a bit different from most loose-leaf aged sheng puerh teas, and allows us to pin a date on this tea, which we ordinarily cannot do, which can influence how we date and evaluate all other loose-leaf aged sheng as well.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eThe second lesson we can learn from this tea is about storage. It is nigh impossible to store loose-leaf sheng in Taiwan or Hong Kong without it being what is called “wet storage.” (This is another reason why cakes are better.) There are two types of wet storage: natural storage in more humidity and “traditional Hong Kong storage,” which involves intentionally cellaring. Wet-stored puerh is a world in itself. Forest Floor is damp, musty and involved. This may not be to everyone’s taste (we love wet-stored teas). If it isn’t to your taste, do a longer rinse. Remember, the last thing in is the first thing out. Since this tea isn’t crazy old, it should lose some of the storage flavors as the session unfolds.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eBy far the most important lesson has to do with the fact that these teas come from the same trip to Yunnan (age), the same region and were stored next to one another in the same way.

Forest Floor scatters you. As the name suggests, the session leaves you open and lost. It has no direction, in other words. Forest Path, on the other hand, has a very specific direction and unfolds, steeping to steeping, in a progressive way. It is more like a quick walk through the woods, staying on the path, as opposed to getting lost. The experience of comparing these teas is incredibly rewarding, allowing us to experience energy as a variable isolated from other features of these teas.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis set comes with 50 grams of each tea.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e[split] Two aged 1990s sheng with very different Qi\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Purple Pot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42132733133021,"sku":"SK72456054","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0311\/7288\/6667\/files\/Energy_Set-01.jpg?v=1791715093"},{"product_id":"dim-sum","title":"Dim Sum","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eDim Sum is a broken up sheng puerh cake from the 1990s.

Puerh wasn’t worth as much back then, and teas were usually sold by weight to dim sum restaurants, as opposed to by the cake. Another possibility is that the restaurant aged their own tea, and broke it up before serving. This beautiful aged tea was somehow leftover from its original destiny as restaurant tea. That is charming to us, and captures the essence of tea as part of daily life. This tea is not as wet-stored as some others of its ilk.

This is a 2006 cake that is gorgeous. It was cleanly stored in Malaysia from 2006 until now. The liquor is thick, rich and has a strong earthy Qi. If you like Big Snow Mountain cakes, this is a great example.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e[split] 2006 Old-Growth Big Snow Mountain Sheng Puerh\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Henry","offers":[{"title":"Sample (15g)","offer_id":44699012464861,"sku":"P-COC-T-1304-S","price":18.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":44699012497629,"sku":"P-COC-T-1305-S","price":65.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"357g","offer_id":44699012530397,"sku":"P-COC-T-1306-S","price":185.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0311\/7288\/6667\/files\/Snowy_River-03.jpg?v=1791712439"},{"product_id":"reishi","title":"Reishi","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003eReishi is a wonderful 1990s “jingcha,” which are heart or mushroom shaped puerh tea cakes.

It is 18 kilometers away from Mengku and belongs to one of the “Eighteen Villages of Mengku.” Xiaohusai has the largest ancient tea garden in Mengku. It has one of the best preserved ancient tea gardens in Yunnan. The trees grow at 1,800 meters above sea level. This tea is bold and strong, with a clean and cool bitter aftertaste that transforms to sweetness quickly, which is perfect for the summer. Lincang tea is known for a bitter flavor, but when it is from older trees, the bitterness melts quickly. The liquor is light yellow and bright, with a slight fragrance of wild honey. The energy is bold and Yang, but it does clear heat. This is also a wonderful tea for aging, as it is bold enough to be stored for a long time. We drank this tea gongfu and leaves in a bowl and enjoyed both very much. You could also brew this in a sidehandle pot, using fewer leaves for a simple, clear and clean bowl that is sure to be refreshing and gentle on a hot summer afternoon.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e[split] \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e2024 Xiaohusai Maocha \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Master Tsai","offers":[{"title":"Sample (15g)","offer_id":45480346910941,"sku":"P-MV-T-1358-S-1","price":14.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"100g","offer_id":45480346943709,"sku":"P-MV-T-1358-S-2","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0311\/7288\/6667\/files\/Mountain_Vale-02.jpg?v=1791710895"}],"url":"https:\/\/globalteahut.org\/collections\/sheng-puerh.oembed?page=3","provider":"Global Tea Hut","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
