10 years ago, when I was just starting to get involved in tea, pu-erh was in incredible fashion, and the prices for a pancake reached 50-60 thousand rubles per pancake (at the rate of a dollar for 30 rubles)
At the same time, pu-erh in mandarin was already on the shelves of tea shops, it all seemed exotic and interesting. Then I remember we started ordering tea from China for the first time, and along with the tea boom, other interesting variations of tea appeared. The Chinese began to press camellia flowers, white tea, pu-erh buds into pancakes, and Pu-erh in grapefruit and da hong pao in grapefruit appeared together with pu-erh in mandarin. Of course it was very attractive and I wanted to try everything.
Many years have passed, it seems to me that the fashion for pu-erh has subsided, it was the fashion when advanced youth drank pu-erh, because it's cool! Pu-erh itself is drunk and very much loved, people who speculated that tea was stored in the ground for 40 years disappeared, and questions about pu-erh in mandarin remained)
In China, as Ilya Badurov told us, a lot of pu-erh has been produced in mandarin and lime in recent years. And here you are walking around the market, and there are a huge number of boxes with tangerine and lime peel on every corner. A huge amount of ready-made tea, in bulk, in a gift box, and such that the president will not be ashamed to give it! And obviously this is a very popular product in the tea market.
So what is it?
In fact, everything is simple, it's pu-erh, which I wear inside the mandarin peel, and tea, as we know, absorbs aromas very well, so it turns out pu-erh with citrus notes. While the tea is inside the peel, it is filled with this aroma and when brewed, we get a different pu-erh from the classic version with natural aromatization, beauty!
And how to brew?Everything is simple here, you can put a tangerine in a kettle or a kettle and pour boiling water, wait until it is brewed.You can crumble the peel and pour tea, brew them together, or you can pour only pu-erh.
Anyone who is interested in trying this option - pu-erh in mandarin in stock, 90 rubles/piece)
