Nanben Laozhai is not just the name of a tea, but a whole history woven from centuries-old traditions, the unique climate and fertile soils of the Yunnan mountains.
The raw materials used for production were collected from old trees in the Mengsong Mountains in the Nanben Laozhai area and processed to the sheng state by master Hei Ki (Chinese: 黑克, pinyin: hēikè).
We have come to love the raw materials from these places and have been regularly importing them since 2019. Master Hei Qi was born in 1979. Since the age of 20, he has been growing tea and producing sheng puer in the vicinity of the village of Nanben Laozhai. His family owns tea gardens covering an area of more than 40 mu, where about 200 ancient puer trees grow.
We entrusted the fermentation of this exclusive raw material to master Zhang Dechun (Chinese: 张德春, pinyin: zhāng déchūn), who has 19 years of experience in fermenting shu puerh. During his tea journey, he had the opportunity to work as a technologist at the Yulin Gushucha tea factory (Chinese: 雨林古树茶, pinyin: yǔlín gǔshù chá), and currently master Zhang Dechun works at the Xinhai factory (Chinese: 鑫海茶厂, pinyin: xīnhǎi cháchǎng).
Mr. Zhang Dechun also owns a small plant for fermenting Chunla Xiyan tea (Chinese: 春腊习验 pinyin: chūnlà xíyàn). This is the plant where the collected raw materials for our signature shu puer were fermented. Fermentation is carried out in small baskets (also known as fermentation with separation from the ground).
This puer turns the usual idea of Shu upside down. The most powerful aroma of hazelnuts, spices, coffee and halva breaks through even through double packaging.
The taste is multifaceted, woody, with berry, coffee and creamy notes. The infusion is oily and viscous. The infusion has a fascinating red color, perfectly transparent. The tea intoxicates with its sobriety, tones up softly but lastingly. The effect is noticeable on a subtle level.
Collectible exclusive shu puer is the result of careful selection of raw materials and the skill of experienced specialists. It has a rich taste profile and has a profound effect on the body, which makes it a valuable specimen for collectors and lovers of high-quality tea.
