If you think you know how great a citrus puerh tea can taste…think again!
Created with the very best Chinese tangerines and aged to perfection! Guangdong is home to the famed ‘Xinhui‘ tangerines. The best in China. The very best of which come from Chakeng (茶坑) and Tianma (天马) regions. They offer the deepest of flavour compared to any other and age extremely gracefully merging flavour with the tea. Stuffed with semi aged Menghai region ripe Puerh.
How to explain this incredible taste? It’s got slight earth from the puerh along side a significant flavour from this special regions tangerine. Not such an enhanced and homogenised flavour in comparison to its elder counterpart. Whilst being smooth, lubricating and promoting salivation it doesn’t do so to quite a stretch as our 2013 Xinhui balls. That being said, these are still remarkably great citrus balls that are great to drink now and can be aged onwards.
Also used in Traditional Chinese Medicine these tangerines can tackle stomach issues, aid in boosting digestion and relieving scratchy throats. These specific tangerines also have a cooling effect on the body. You can actually eat the tangerine rind when your done, it’s good for you!
Age can do wonders to this little things. Over time the favours of the tea fuse with the citrus and taste deepens becoming more enhanced and melded together. These balls are much more infusable than their more economic counterparts.
brewing is simple, no different to any other Ripe Pu Erh. You can opt to split one citrus into two sessions or with a large gaiwan or teapot throw the whole thing in and enjoy! Make sure to include the citrus Pieces!!
if you decide to further age these balls it’s best to leave them in a glass container, separate from your other puerh. It’s recommended not to add any further humidity, these balls should age fine just as they are! The citrus featured in the video below are smaller previously stocked 2015 balls.
