Feng Qing is known for its ancient tea plants and long tradition of tea production, which makes sheng pu-erh from this region sought after for both its quality and complexity. Sheng pu-erh, often called “raw” pu-erh, undergoes a natural oxidation process that takes place over several years. Unlike mature (shou) pu-erh, sheng is fermented slowly and allowed to age over time. As this happens, the tea develops its distinctive flavor profile, often with hints of flowers, fruit and subtle smoky notes. The tea plants in Feng Qing, many of them many centuries old, play a crucial role in the character of the tea. The deep roots of these ancient plants absorb nutrients from the mineral-rich layers of the soil, which contributes to the taste and quality of the tea. In addition, the teas are grown at high altitudes where they benefit from the clean water and cool air, resulting in a clear and fresh taste. The slow oxidation and the unique conditions in Feng Qing give the tea a special minerality and depth.
