2016 Han Qing Raw Pu-erh Tea
Interpretation of “Han Qing”
①“Han Qing” extended meaning as historical annals, that is, tea products can be passed down from age to age.
②Using Qin Dynasty’s “Unified Transport System” shading, implying that tea products are shocking the past and the present and can be traced back in the future.
③ Representing the milestone of Chen Sheng Hao's tea making
④ The first Pu’er tea cake of Chen Sheng Hao’s Spring Collection released in 2016
Since the establishment of the brand, Chen Sheng Hao has focused on Da Shu Pu'er tea (large-leaf arbor tree tea). With Chen Sheng Hao’s decades of experience in making tea, we continue to inject innovative tea-making techniques into Yunnan’s tea-producing areas, which have been recognized and promoted by the local government and tea farmers. Chen Sheng Hao takes the promotion of tea culture as its own responsibility. We use the implicit meaning of “Han Qing” to pursue leaving an indelible mark in the world of tea.
This series has three highlights.
- “Han Qing” is made with the earliest spring tea leaves of the year picked from Gu Shu/ancient tea trees with over 300 years of age.
- The naming method is similar to that of the Hani minority’s "father and son concatenation system", which is the last word of father’s name is the same as the first word of his son’s name.
- Each tea has a cultural meaning.
In winter, the tea tree recuperates and regenerates, and reserves a wealth of nutrients. Therefore, the spring tea leaves are rich in quality, high in aromatic substances and vitamins, and have a fresh taste and strong aroma. The appearance is tight and strong.
In order to bring the most "fresh" taste of the earliest spring to tea lovers, we finished picking fresh leaves to the completion of production in less than one month. Tasting “Han Qing” is to embrace the spring of Xishuangbanna.
Gongfu style (recommended)
About 5–7 g of leaf in a 100–120 ml gaiwan or small teapot, with water just off the boil (100 °C / 212 °F). Rinse once for 5–10 seconds and pour it away. Start with infusions of about 5–10 seconds and add a few seconds each round. Good leaf gives 8–15 infusions.
Mug or teapot
About 3–4 g per 250 ml, with water just off the boil. Rinse once, then steep 1–2 minutes for the first cup and a little longer for each cup after. The leaves give 3–4 cups.
Too bitter? Shorten the steep or use a little less leaf. Keep the water just off the boil.
Storage
Keep cakes in their paper wrappers, in a cardboard box, bamboo or unglazed clay, off the floor. Aim for 20–25 °C (68–77 °F) and 60–70% relative humidity, out of direct light, away from strong smells and with some airflow. For long-term aging, don't use the fridge, silica gel or airtight bags; a sealed tin is fine for the portion you are drinking now. Fuzzy or colored spots or a musty smell mean mold: don't drink it.
