  • Officially named in 1988, the blend recipe was established in 1986, utilizing 5th-grade tea materials and produced by Xia Guan, the third-ranked tea factory within the CNNP group.
  • Variations of the "8653" series include the general version, "T 8653" (pressed into an iron-like hard cake), "FT 8653" (tailored for Taiwanese consumers, featuring younger and tinier tea leaves for a smoother taste), and "FTT 8653" (an iron cake ordered by FT tea company).

The 2006 XiaGuan "FT8653" Cake exemplifies excellence in Puerh tea, inviting enthusiasts to savor its complexity and richness while honoring its storied heritage and legacy within the world of Chinese tea.
