Cha Yuan Ji · Tianma Xiao Qing Gan — Aged Imperial Ripe Pu-erh in Green Tangerine, 250g
Cha Yuan Ji · Tianma Xiao Qing Gan — Aged Imperial Ripe Pu-erh in Green Tangerine, 250g
Tianma Xiao Qing Gan · Bright Citrus, Mature Tea Depth
Cha Yuan Ji's Tianma Imperial Xiao Qing Gan pairs 2025 green tangerines from Tianma, a core growing area of Xinhui, with premium imperial-grade ripe pu-erh dating to approximately 2010, dry-stored in Menghai. Fresh, elevated citrus fragrance meets the mellow substance of tea matured for well over a decade.
Handpicked Tangerines, Traditional Sun-Drying
Made with handpicked green tangerines from air-layered trees, this tea follows a traditional natural sun-drying process. The thick, supple peel displays distinct oil glands and brings a lively fruit aroma that complements the aged ripe pu-erh within.
Silky Liquor, Lingering Sweetness
Brewing releases a lustrous reddish-brown liquor with a silky, gentle texture. The bright green-tangerine fragrance sits alongside the rounded body and mature character of aged ripe pu-erh, leading to a long, sweet return. It is a pairing of fresh citrus lift and settled tea depth, rather than a tea made entirely in a single year.
Individually Wrapped for Everyday Sessions
Each filled tangerine is independently wrapped, with one whole tangerine intended for one brewing session with repeated infusions. The food-grade plastic jar holds 250g net weight and offers convenient storage between sessions. Unwrap one, warm your teaware and follow the gradual mingling of citrus peel and tea.

Brewing Guidance
Brewing Guidance
Suggested brewing starting point:
Unwrap one filled tangerine and remove its small top cap, if present. Place the tangerine and its cap in a gaiwan or teapot, allowing ample space for water to circulate.
Water: Freshly boiled water, 100°C.
Briefly rinse with hot water and discard the rinse to awaken the peel and tea.
Begin with approximately 150–200ml water and a 20–30 second infusion, adjusting the water volume and steeping time to the size of the tangerine and your preferred strength.
Decant completely. Refill repeatedly, gradually extending later infusions as the tea and citrus peel open up.
One whole tangerine is intended for a full brewing session, not just one cup.
Storage: Keep the food-grade plastic jar tightly closed in a cool, dry, odor-free place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Leave individual wrappers intact until needed and handle with dry utensils.
