2024 Yunnan 7g Sheng Green Puer – 7g Slice Tea

2024 Yunnan 7g Sheng Green Puer – 7g Slice Tea

Crafted in the early spring of 2024, this Yunnan 7g Sheng Green Puer Slice offers a clean, energetic expression of young raw puer tea. Each slice is pressed from freshly harvested, sun-dried leaves sourced from old tree material in Yunnan’s high-altitude tea gardens, capturing the bold vitality of spring and the terroir of the ancient mountains.

Pressed into thin, elegant slices, each 7g slice is perfectly portioned for a full teapot or Gongfu session. The format offers all the characteristics of a traditional puer tea cake in a more convenient, ready-to-brew design, ideal for modern lifestyles, retail packaging, and brand customisation.

This is a young Sheng (raw) puer tea, green, bright, and naturally evolving. Once steeped, the liquor turns a luminous pale gold, with aromas of sweet grass, dried apricot, and crisp mountain air. The flavour is fresh and vibrant, with a brisk opening that softens quickly into honeyed stone fruit, camphor, and a gentle mineral edge. A light bitterness at first gives way to a clean finish and a slow-building hui gan, the hallmark returning sweetness of quality sheng.

With time and air, this puer tea will continue to mellow and develop depth, making it not only a refreshing daily drinker but also a candidate for ageing. For private label partners, this format offers a premium product with flexibility in packaging, branding, and presentation.
