Learn more about Xingyang Workshop:

In the late 80’s and early 90’s, the Pu’er industry went through some real growing pains. On the one hand, more open trade and relaxed policies on commune farming paved the way for individual workshops to succeed. On the other hand, the few established factories like Xiaguan and Mengku were drifting away from quality towards quantity in order to fulfill the new, fast-growing demand.

Xingyang was a scrappy newcomer to the game - founded by Wu Wei and several other leading craftsman, Xingyang’s founders left the big factories when they became disillusioned with the industry. They formed Xingyang to champion immaculately clean, carefully sourced tea, forming deep partnerships with farmers in Ailao, Wuliang, Honghe, and Yiwu. Instead of investing in ad campaigns, Xingyang invested in the people growing the tea and in their own workshop. Over the last 30 years, they’ve stayed small, but they have made a name for themselves, winning recognition for their clean and sweet shu pu’er.
