Experience a tea that is as much a part of nature as it is a work of craftsmanship. This sheng comes from the mist-shrouded forests around the town of Pu\u2019er in Yunnan, the region\u2019s historic heartland for puerh production. At an altitude of 1,500 metres, ancient tea trees grow as a natural part of a living forest ecosystem \u2013 far removed from conventional plantations. The trees in these \u201dForest-mix\u201d plantations have been growing for many generations. At this altitude, the leaves develop slowly, giving them time to concentrate polyphenols, amino acids and complex aromatic compounds. The result is a sheng with a deep, multi-layered character that can only be created through low yields and high biodiversity. This is a tea where no machines have been allowed to interfere with the process. Every step is carried out according to traditional methods. Only the finest buds and the first two or three leaves are harvested by hand. The leaves are gently dried under the Yunnan sun to preserve their vital energy and ensure excellent ageing potential.<\/p>\n
