Xiao Qing Gan is made from young Chazhigan(茶枝柑) harvested in July–August. After the fruit is carefully hollowed out, the fresh peel is filled with ripe Pu-erh tea, then slowly dried to create this distinctive tea.
The green mandarin peel in this tea comes from Pubei, Guangxi, one of the premium regions for aged citrus peel, while the Pu-erh tea is sourced from Yunnan. Both ingredients were produced in 2020 and have undergone approximately five years of aging.
Over time, the sharp, youthful citrus notes of the green mandarin gradually soften, transforming into a gentle, deep, and well-rounded citrus aroma.
After brewing, the first impression is a bright mandarin fragrance, followed by the smooth, full-bodied texture of ripe Pu-erh. The overall character is soft, calm, and grounded, with a subtle cooling sensation in the finish.
The fresh citrus aroma helps mellow the typical storage notes of ripe Pu-erh, making this tea exceptionally approachable and beginner-friendly.
This tea can be steeped or gently boiled, making it especially suitable for autumn and winter. Both citrus peel and ripe Pu-erh are traditionally appreciated for supporting digestion and reducing heaviness after meals.

Who Is This Tea For?

This Xiao Qing Gan is ideal for tea drinkers who enjoy rich, bold, and full-bodied flavors.
If you prefer light and delicate teas such as green tea or scented teas, this tea may feel too intense for your taste.

Friendly Notes

1. As this tea has been aged for around five years, the ripe Pu-erh inside may naturally show light earthy or mildly sour storage notes. These are considered normal characteristics of aged ripe Pu-erh.
2. Each Xiao Qing Gan weighs approximately 8–10 g. If a whole piece feels too strong, you can break it apart and brew only part of the tea and peel.
3. When brewed properly, bitterness or harshness should not occur. If bitterness appears, please increase the water ratio or shorten the brewing time.

Shelf Life: Suitable for long-term storage when kept dry, well-ventilated, and properly sealed.

Before brewing, poke 3-4 small holes in the Xiao Qing Gan, or gently squeeze it so the peel cracks slightly. Alternatively, you can break the peel into small pieces before brewing.
