Crafted By Xingyang Workshop

Xingyang Workshop was founded by several masters from much larger Xiaguan to revive the ideals of clean, slow meticulous fermentation and small batch blending.
 
Thanks to their 50+ years of connections, Xingyang is able to flex their relationships for some of the best leaf material in Yunnan from wild, single-origin sites.

    Xingyang Workshop was inspired in 2016 to start pressing a series of pu’er bars based on traditional Chinese medicinal fruits and flowers. Their workshop’s famously clean fermentation process yields a rich sweet and crisp shu pu’er base to press with beautiful bright orange lily blossoms that unfold in the gaiwan with a heady deep aroma. The brick is scored to break into easy single brewing portions.

the Xingyang Collective also recommends:

  • 'Whether it’s pressed with chrysanthemum and roses or stuffed into oranges and miniature clementines, there are few things more traditional that scenting pu’er. Adding traditional medicinal herbs and flowers to pu’er is, for many, both reasonable and delicious'
