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 is known for its meticulously slow, dry, clean shu pu’er fermentation. The lifelong connections of Xingyang’s founders means they have access to incredible high-elevation plots where they can manage a clean ecosystem. As a very small workshop, they are unique in having an extensive aging program of their own - allowing them to hold back teas like this one for years so we can taste them at mature complexity. This blend is packed with golden buds for a sweet luxurious flavor. Notes of ginseng, butterscotch, yuzu, chrysanthemum and a rocky velvety minerality.

the Xingyang Workshop 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'
