2023 Kunlu Xiao Qiao Mu Sheng / Raw Puerh Tea :: Seattle Inventory

This material is from their small arbor trees that is called Xiao Qiao Mu (that just means small arbor tree). We call it KXQM for short. We have sourced this material every year since our first and it is so good!

The tea is full bodied and creamy with minimal bitterness or astringency. It is very floral with potent orchid notes. There is a finishing sweetness like cotton candy. This tea always hits the spot!

This is a single origin sheng puerh tea offering that is unique and offers an incredible tea experience. It is are from a single garden and remains unblended and processed individually. This tea was aged loose for a year before getting pressed. The extra time aging as loose material gives the tea a nice head start.

We pressed very few of these cakes and will not be able to offer samples.
