Basket fermentation of shu puer is a unique fermentation technology, a method that allows for better and finer control over the process conditions, which contributes to the production of good tea, allowing for consistent and high-quality results. Basket fermentation not only improves the taste and aroma of the product, but also makes the process more predictable. Controlling the conditions of "wodui" (渥堆, wòduī, "wet stacking") is important, especially when working with expensive raw materials ("maocha", 毛茶, máochá), as it helps to avoid large losses in the event of a production failure.
