What Is Xinhui Green Mandarin Orange Ripe Puerh Tea?
Xinhui Green Mandarin Orange Ripe Puerh Tea combines aged ripe Pu-erh tea with small green mandarins from Xinhui, Jiangmen, Guangdong.
The edible fruit is removed from each mandarin, leaving the citrus peel to undergo traditional sun-drying. Once dried, the peel is filled with ripe Pu-erh tea leaves. Over time, the Pu-erh absorbs the natural citrus aroma from the peel, creating a distinctive combination of citrus fragrance and mellow ripe Pu-erh character.

Citrus & Pu-erh Character
Xinhui is a well-known region in Guangdong for mandarins used in traditional dried citrus peel products.
After the edible fruit is removed, the remaining peel is traditionally sun-dried. The dried peel is then filled with ripe Pu-erh tea leaves, allowing the tea to gradually absorb the citrus aroma over time.
This process creates a distinctive combination of refreshing citrus fragrance and mellow ripe Pu-erh character.
