Sourced by Wang Yanxin

Small farmers and micro-workshops across Yunnan are often denied the chance to show off their incredible work, overshadowed by big labels. Wang Yanxin believes in small producers, helping them reach a wide audience without big brand labels.
 
The result is pristine, hand-finished tea, aged offerings and regional collaborations that inspire new styles. Wang Yanxin has devoted her career and formidable palate to these collaborations, searching far and wide for the very best.

    The Nuo Mi Xiang herb is wild picked and blended with shu pu’er for a truly singular flavor experience. Imagine roasted state fair sweet corn, or just out of the bamboo steamer sticky rice. The Nuo Mi Xiang gives that sweet savory quality to really raise up the pu’er itself and show off herbaceous undertones and notes of toasted chestnut, baked apple, cedar, peppercorn, basil and tulsi.

Wang Yanxin also recommends:

  • 'Most pu’er does become more complex over time. Astringency mellows out, darker and richer flavors come through. Textural complexities become more pronounced. Starting with an intriguing young pu’er of high quality with lots of textures and flavors at play will increase your chances of graceful aging.'
