Wang Yanxin has been working with small producer Wan Yuan Workshop for years. She loves the unexpected complexity of their teas and the fact that they aren’t one of the over-represented brands out there. As a smaller producer, they are able to put out much higher quality work and deliver that value in tea, not marketing budget. This old tree shu pu’er harvest has a deep, aged quality with notes of ginger, molasses, white chocolate, vanilla and cedar with a velvety texture.

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.'
