And just as I had that thought, a young man walked into my shop. If was from Lincang and was traveling to Pu'er city to promote his teas. This is quite rare because we're not in the tea market and quite far from the city center. He just happened to have a customer nearby and was offering samples to the shops around. We sat and drank his teas for two hours. We prefer to travel directly to the mountains to source tea, but you can't ignore fate. All the tea we tried were very good, they had some of that fragrant mengku profile, but also more punch than usual for Lincang teas. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhile located close to Shuangjiang, Mang Nuo is not a famous area, I had never heard of it before and will be looking forward to traveling there. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSince we already bought a lot of tea for pressing, we opted to buy a small quantity of his single tree production and sell it loose. He only had 7kg in his batch. So here it is!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tea feels very clean and sharp, it has forest tea characteristics (dark green leaves and that special fresh fragrance). The soup feels fairly light in the mouth but you can feel it flowing down the throat, it cleans you esophagus like good Lao Banzhang tea and will then caress your stomach. If you like Menghai tea and want to broaden your horizon, this is a great choice. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Farmerleaf","offers":[{"title":"70g pouch","offer_id":46613708767419,"sku":"","price":45.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1318\/5761\/files\/623739C9-C13D-4798-91B5-A2F52C966989.jpg?v=1746088760"},{"product_id":"spring-2026-mang-nuo-single-trees","title":"Spring 2026 Mang Nuo Single Trees","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpring 2026, small batch picked from two very big trees\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMang Nuo village, Mengku area\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eVery intense Cha Qi\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"120\" data-start=\"23\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ecomplex opening fragrance, different\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"62\" data-start=\"59\"\u003e\u003cem\u003efrom the gushu version, fruitier and\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"101\" data-start=\"98\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ewarmer, less sharp.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-end=\"254\" data-start=\"122\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ethick and oily soup, understated fragrance\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"167\" data-start=\"164\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eimmediate Huigan\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"186\" data-start=\"183\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ewarm and complex orchid, bottom private fragrance\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"238\" data-start=\"235\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eenergizing Chaqi\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"431\" data-start=\"256\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eafter opening up, a healthy bitterness emerges\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"305\" data-start=\"302\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eheavy sweating starts\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"329\" data-start=\"326\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eoutstanding endurance\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"353\" data-start=\"350\"\u003e\u003cem\u003ethe returning fragrance and the Huigan linger\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr data-end=\"401\" data-start=\"398\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eand take you above the clouds.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-is-only-node=\"\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-end=\"431\" data-start=\"256\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!-- split --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe met the farmer in our tea shop  in 2025 and we've established a good relationship since then.
