XIXICHA Puerh Tea – Premium Tangerine Peel Pu-erh, 160g (Xiao Qing Gan Xinhui ChenPi)

Discover the XIXICHA Tangerine Peel Pu-erh Tea

Experience a distinctive blend that pairs the earthy depth of ripe Pu-erh with the bright, natural citrus of a carefully selected tangerine peel. This tea is crafted from Pu'er buds grown in Menghai, Yunnan, and citrus peels sourced from Tianma fruits in Xinhui, Guangdong. The result is a balanced aroma and a smooth, layered flavor that rewards attentive brewing and patient sipping.

Origin, Craft, and Sensory Journey

each small green tangerine is filled with top-grade ripe Pu’er tea and then sun-dried for 30 days to preserve its fruity oils and aromatic compounds. The peel’s surface often bears a delicate white frost, a sign of crystallized tangerine oil and meticulous craftsmanship. A seasoned tea master blends this Xiaoqinggan style creation after many trials, aiming for a tea that shines with clarity and character when brewed.

• Uniform citrus fruit selection produces a reliable aroma and consistency across batches.
• The combination of tangerine peel and ripe Pu’er delivers a multi-layer profile that unfolds across infusions.
• Slow sun-drying helps retain the peels’ natural oils, contributing to a longer-lasting aroma.
• Scarce output in some seasons adds a sense of rare, artisanal selection.

Brewing Experience and Flavor Notes

When brewed, the liquor presents as a clear ruby, inviting the senses with an immediate citrus fruit surge. The first sip awakens the zest and brightness of tangerine, followed by evolving aromas of aged Pu’er as you continue to steep. By the third infusion, aged, woody tones emerge, while the tenth infusion often reveals a lingering sweetness with a subtle cool finish.

• Open the top lid and place the whole small green tangerine Pu’er into a pot, gaiwan, or cup.
• Add 100°C (212°F) hot water, using the first brew to wash and moisten the tea.
• Pour hot water again and steep briefly, gradually increasing time with each infusion to taste.

Packaging, Storage, and Gift Potential

The packaging design blends Chinese cultural elegance with practical protection. Each small green mandarin is individually wrapped in cotton paper to lock in aroma and ease transport. The packaging keeps the product well-sealed, making display and gifting straightforward for tea ceremonies, clients, family, or friends.

• High sealing helps preserve aroma and flavor integrity over time.
• Individually wrapped peels simplify storage and travel.
• Store in a cool, dry place to maintain the citrus-tea balance; longer aging can deepen flavor; packaging date is not an expiration date.
