Lao Man E is a famous tea village in the Bulang region of Menghai (Yunnan) and known for its strong-charactered Sheng Pu-erh teas. These teas are particularly famous for their potent yet quickly dissipating bitterness, which is accompanied by an intense sweetness in the aftertaste (Huigan). Also typical is a rather subtle, earthy, and slightly leathery aroma that slowly unfolds in the mouth and throat. Spring teas from Lao Man E are considered stronger, more complex, and structured, with greater bitterness and more aging potential. Autumn teas, on the other hand, are usually softer, rounder, and more immediately accessible, with moderate bitterness and often a warm, slightly autumnal fragrance.
Taste:
This Sheng Pu Erh should be prepared using the Gong Fu Brewing method to get the maximum enjoyment from the tea.
Lao Man E is known for its strong, bitter aroma and powerful tea effect. With the first infusion, which steeps for only 10 seconds, you experience a pleasant sweetness with an impressive flavor profile and a delightful tea effect. If steeped longer, the bitterness typical of Lao Man E unfolds.
