A new recipe for 2013!  We used first flush wild and ancient arbor material from 4 different tea mountains in Simao to craft this lovely tea cake.  "Feng Chun" basically means "Meeting Spring" which is appropriate because the overall character of this tea is a fresh, lively, floral and smooth!

The tea brews up a highly aromatic experience.  Mouth-feel is lively and hui gan is fast and protracted.  Cha Qi is quite obvious but manages not over-power the drink (like Bu Lang teas).  Plenty of future aging potential in this potent blend of premium pu-erh teas!

 400 grams per cake (7 cakes per bamboo tong)

Aging slowly

"I got a free sample of this blended sheng recently. It tastes a bit like huang pian, even though it isn’t, since it is quite sour overall. There are aromas of caramel, marsh, cake, hay, compost and rapini. The liquor has a light to medium body. Even at 9 years of age it still tastes quite green and young. However, it is more of a warming profile than what you tend to get with fresh sheng. Overarching flavours are sweet and sour. Specifically, I can taste warm, sour grass and cabbage in the first steep. These are followed by flavours of hay, roasted lemons and mineral, nutty ones. The aftertaste has a floral sourness a bit like a Taiwanese high mountain oolong. It has good legs and a herbaceous character with notes of saline, honey and spinach."

Complex, balanced, and satisfying

"I got this in the tea club box and have really been enjoying it! It's complex, balanced, and satisfying to drink. Body is medium, aroma is high level, and it steeps many times. There is a hop and honey feeling in this tea and it's very lively!"

"I am new to sheng puerh. I found this tea was enjoyable, more complex that commodity green tea, but not all that different from a younger, cheaper, xi gui branded and labeled (though skeptical) tea cake I bought online. Quite green in taste with some complex bitterness and astringency."

Vey enjoyable tea

"Received 25g. in April 2021 Premium Tea Club Box. First impressions are very positive. For now it's easy drinking sheng with zesty aroma, strong huigan with very slight bitterness on initial steeps. Not astringent, only delicate powdery mouthfeel. It's hard to overbrew (though possible). Later steeps are most enjoyable. Qi is present and felt but not overpowering."
