This artisanal mini cake is crafted from authentic sliced Xinhui Chenpi (Aged Tangerine Peel) from Guangdong and aged Fuding Shou Mei (White Tea) produced in 2016.
-
Flavor Profile: The taste initially presents a subtle sweetness, followed by a characteristic pungent and bitter aftertaste. In traditional Chinese herbology, this blend is recognized for its "warm" attribute.
-
Palate Experience: Both Chenpi and White Tea possess a refreshingly light sweetness reminiscent of spring water. In this mini cake, their combined sweetness is structurally enhanced, becoming more potent and impressive through their synergy.
-
Market Context: In recent years, Chenpi has gained immense popularity within the tea industry, transcending its traditional roots as a medicinal product. In major domestic markets like Fang Cun, it is prominently featured on shelves and tea tables. It is widely enjoyed as a standalone brew via the Gongfu method, simmered in glass kettles for wellness, or blended with other teas such as Sheng/Shou puerh or White Tea—a trend that has evolved from innovative experimentation into a mainstream staple.
-
Personal Note: As I write these words, I am savoring this tea steep by steep using the Gongfu method. It is a compelling product from a reputable source that shares my core ideology and principles regarding tea, health, and business integrity. This tea comes highly recommended for those seeking to enhance their daily tea ritual.
