Mao Pao

Loose-leaf Shu Pu-erh from Ban Zhang mountain boasts sizable leaves, yet it imparts an astonishingly delicate yet profound taste. Woody notes transition into sweetness, freezing on the border of bitterness without overwhelming it. The bitterness merely accentuates the sweetness. Teas from Ban Zhang mountain are rightfully renowned for their exceptional taste.

As for the state of being, it’s always challenging to describe. Imagine returning home in the evening after a challenging day—fatigue, irritation, stress. The air outside is stifling, your mind is in disarray. You step into the shower; the cold streams bring you back to yourself. Wrapped in a plush robe, you enter your cozy nook where the tea board and the old friend, the teapot, patiently await. Thoughts still scatter in your heat-ridden head. You brew a cup of Mao Pao tea. Suddenly, with the first sip, a resounding thunder breaks loose simultaneously with a cleansing downpour of nature, washing away your headache. Nothing changes, yet everything does. Purity, tranquility, clarity, detachment. Mao Pao – the “Plush Robe” of teas.
