The Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Treasure 2020 is a carefully selected product by Tea Soul to offer an even deeper tasting experience and understanding of the complex type of puer teas. The gardens from which the leaves of this sheng come are located near the town of Mengzhe in the Menghai county. From this area at the southernmost tip of Yunnan, in the province of Xishuangbanna, many high-quality puer teas arise thanks to the excellent raw materials of the territory and the great presence of skilled and expert tea artisans. The infusion of the Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Treasure 2020 possesses a rather complex flavor profile, capable of developing mainly in the aftertaste. In the first sips, the tea mainly shows its vegetal character, suggesting both a strong taste similar to that of an asparagus and a fresher one comparable to that of soy sprouts. As the tasting advances, the puer also reveals a sweetness with a cereal note and a particularly soft body, suggesting a buttery sensation on the palate. Amidst the rich landscape of flavors in this product, a slight bitter taste can also be perceived, a sign of great maturation potential over time. If you wish to explore further the wide range of flavors that the Bulang area can express, we suggest comparing this product with the Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Gushu 2018. Place of origin: Mengzhe, Menghai county - Yunnan, China. Production: After harvesting, the leaves of the Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Treasure 2020 are left to wither in the sun for a certain period, depending on the producer, before proceeding to the "kill-green" phase, which is similar to that used for producing green teas. The peculiarity, in this case, lies in not heating the leaves as much as is done for a green tea, in order to preserve certain enzymes capable of modifying flavors over time. Once cooked, the leaves are left to rest for one night before completing the sun drying process. At this stage, the product is called maocha and is ready to be pressed to obtain the best conditions for transport and aging. To press the leaves, they are subjected for a few seconds to a strong jet of steam, to make them soft externally. Subsequently, they are gathered in a stocking or bag that will give the product a usually disc-shaped form. To ensure that this structure remains fixed over time, the bag is left for hours under a stone or a mechanical press, while the leaves lose that residual moisture absorbed from the steam in the previous phase. Infusion method for the Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Treasure 2020: We strongly recommend infusing the Sheng Puer Tea (raw) Bulang Treasure 2020 using the traditional Chinese method (Gong Fu Cha) with a Gaiwan with a capacity of about 100 ml. Following this preparation, with 5 grams of leaves, multiple infusions can be made to fully appreciate all the flavors of the tea. After a quick rinse of the leaves with water at 100°C, a first infusion can proceed for 10 seconds. Subsequently, maintaining the water at the same temperature, the product can be continued to be used, adding more water and increasing the infusion time from the previous one by about 5 seconds (10 - 15 - 20…). For a more traditional preparation in the Western style, we recommend 3 grams of leaves (about 2 teaspoons) in a 150 ml cup with water at 100°C for an infusion time of one and a half minutes. For a better tasting experience, we suggest filtering the infusion as soon as the established soaking time is concluded. The infusion times we suggest can be slightly modified according to your preference for a more or less intense flavor. It is advisable to store in a cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight. Benefits of Sheng Puer Tea (raw): Sheng Puer Teas (raw) mainly have effects regarding the nervous system. Thanks to their content of caffeine and amino acids, they can provide both arousal useful for keeping the mind alert and reactive, as well as lowering the production of certain hormones that lead to the feeling of stress. The charge induced by Sheng Puer Tea (raw) manifests gradually in the body and shows a greater duration over time compared to the effect that can be felt from drinking Green Teas. Finally, if you are particularly sensitive to caffeine, we invite you not to consume more than two cups of Sheng Puer Tea (raw) a day and perhaps try to have this beverage in the morning or early afternoon.
