Description:

The 2006 XiaGuan "FT-Te Ji" Tuo is part of the esteemed "Te Ji" series, denoting "Special Grade" in Chinese. This line of Puerh Sheng Cha, initiated in 2003 by XiaGuan, aimed to exceed the quality standards set by the JiaJi tuo cha. Renowned as "TeTuo" ("特沱"), an abbreviation of "TeJiTuoCha," this series underwent an official renaming in 2016, underscoring its prestige.

Distinctive Features:

  • The wrapper bears the trademark design of a "Pine tree and Crane," emblematic of the series' heritage and superior quality.
  • Variants of the "Te Ji" series include the general version and a higher-quality variant distinguished by a red-eyed crane.
  • The "FT" (Fly to Taiwan) version employs slightly superior tea materials, featuring more young buds and tiny leaves.

Packaging Options:

  • Available in various packaging styles, such as simple wrappers and paper boxes.
  • Offered in different weights, catering to diverse preferences and needs, including 100g and 250g options.

Taste Profile:

  • The "Te Ji" series boasts a more pronounced astringency owing to its higher-grade tea materials compared to the JiaJi tuo cha.
  • Initial sessions unveil a fragrant aroma and a richer mouthfeel.
  • Notable characteristics include evident bitterness and a prominent smokiness.
  • Recognized for its rapid HuiGan (returning sweetness) and ShengJin (saliva production).
  • Since 2011, the series has evolved to feature lighter smokiness and bitterness, appealing to a broader consumer base.

Storage:

  • Benefiting from natural storage in Guangzhou, the "Te Ji" series undergoes gradual flavor and aroma development, enhancing its complexity over time.

The 2006 XiaGuan "FT-Te Ji" Tuo epitomizes the tradition of high-quality puerh tea while adapting to evolving consumer tastes, making it an enticing choice for both seasoned enthusiasts and newcomers alike.
